| Title | Blue Valley Industrial District |
| Description | Aerial view looking north shows the Blue River (also known as the Big Blue) cutting through the center of the image, with 12th Street crossing over. In the left foreground, a portion of The Ruberoid Co. (manufacturers of asphalt and asbestos building materials) is visible. Just north of that is the parking lot of Black Sivalls & Bryson Inc. (makers of steel products). North of the bridge, in the current location of Interstate 435, is the Centropolis Crusher, a facility for rock crushing. Just out of sight on the south of 12th and east of Blue River is the Olympic Stadium Midget Auto Racetrack. |
