This aerial photo captures a waterfront construction site along the Low Battery seawall. The image shows an active work zone with heavy machinery, including excavators, bulldozers, and construction materials scattered throughout the area. The seawall, which runs parallel to the water, is undergoing renovations, as indicated by dirt piles, barriers, and ongoing work. Adjacent to the construction site is a historic park with large, mature oak trees and a prominent circular monument featuring a statue at its center. Surrounding the park are elegant, historic homes with classic Southern architecture, white facades, and porches.
