Jamaica Avenue under the elevated

Jamaica Avenue under the elevated

The roadway runs away between rows of teal-painted steel columns that carry the elevated railway overhead on riveted plate girders and latticed cross-bracing, with green traffic signals hung from brackets beneath the deck. Orange-and-white barrels and barricades line both curbs and a white contractor's trailer sits at the left curb. The brick building behind it carries stacked signboards for an exterminator, a window and gutter installer and a beauty center; a green street sign to the right reads 121 St, and red scaffolding rises against a building beyond it.
