Scope & content
Subseries consists of a miscellaneous group of images assembled by the archivist from photographs that did not readily fit into any existing category in Series 372. Arranged chronologically, photographs in this subseries cover a diverse range of subjects, from architecture (bridges and buildings) and transportation (illegal parking, streetcars, and street cleaning) to public works (waste incineration, sewers, water distribution networks, and Works facilities) and police and fire services (stations and fire halls). There are numerous photographs of intersections located around the city, as well as views of stagnant ponds, fire damage, civic events.
