Gravel Pit, N.Y.

Gravel Pit, N.Y.
Aerial view of a large gravel pit surrounded by farmland and wooded areas in Port Washington. A conveyor can be seen winding through the huge pit. Several buildings and parked cars can be seen at the head of the conveyor in the foreground; also a road with several houses, a parking lot, and a yard with piles of concrete pipes. On the lower left side of the image the conveyor appears to cross under the road to another pit on the other side. Two tall metal towers, possibly radio towers, can be seen in the fields in the background.
