Photograph. Black and white photo showing a crane loading a cable reel onto the deck of a tugboat (probably the tugboat, Michael Sabadash). Office staff and workers are gathered along the dock at the Detroit Edison Delray electric power plant to observe the aerial power line construction work. The tugboat and its crew are assisting in the construction of aerial power lines across the Detroit River which will form an interconnection between the Delray electric power plant in Detroit and the Ontario Hydro J. C. Keith Generating Station in Windsor, Ontario. Structural steel members at the base of one of the transmission line towers can be seen in the foreground. The Detroit River and the Canadian shoreline are visible in the background.
