"Reaching for the Sky: Soaring higher and higher are the six 13-story apartment buildings under construction in the downtown Plaza Redevelopment Project. Steel being hoisted by the crane in this picture will be fitted into upper-floor construction of one of the buildings at Seventeenth and Pine streets. The buildings, which are to be completed simultaneously, according to present construction plans, are due to be ready for occupancy next spring."
