1920s Rikers Landfill Operations -- Scene #12: Close-up B (Near Left Section)

Scene 12's Close-up B (near left section) shows a workman climbing a piece of a equipment as he carries in one hand a part to which is attached a cable. He too may also be talking with a colleague seen seated on a plank in the shadows beneath the wooden platform. The kind of equipment on which the workman is climbing appears in Scene 11's Close-up C. Note also the stone or cement blocks that appear neatly stacked on the loading warf in Scene 11's Close-up C have been put to use above, weighing down the wooden platform supporting heavy lifting equipment.
