Mock-up of cornice on scaffolding, construction of the McKim Building.
Stevens, Edward F. (Edward Fletcher), 1860-1946 · October 21, 1889
The temporary cornice was erected at the correct height above the south corner of the Facade to test that the proportions of the cornice were suited to the Facade. This view is almost identical to photo No. 120. Photo No. 122 by Edward Stevens, Clerk of Works.
