This image shows a seven-man paving crew working on Oxnard Boulevard during the widening project that took place circa 1925. The men are using shovels and there is a large paving machine visible to the right of the frame. There are three men and a boy standing on the sidewalk watching the work being done. Oxnard Boulevard storefronts are visible. The signs on the store windows read 'drinks', 'groceries', and 'southern café'. The store awnings are retracted.
