Mock Up #31 (North East Corner at Wilton Place/Fernwood Drive)
1971

Vintage black and white photograph mounted on brown paper, depicting a tall palm tree in front of a mid-century modern style building with large windows and horizontal lines. Handwritten annotations and arrows on the photo suggest it is used for planning or analysis, with text at the bottom indicating "NE corner at Wilton Pl. & Fernwood Ave 888". There's a circular stamp with the number "31" on the bottom right corner of the mounting paper.
