Near the intersection of Broadway and Madison Avenue, New York, an immense excavation has been made for the foundations of a new building; its walls are shored up, and a tall crane rises from a platform near the bottom of the pit. A thin zigzag line across the shores, 3 1/2 in. from the foot of the plate and 5 1/2 in. from the left side, have been retouched and straightened by the addition of short slanting lines which cross it.
