View of the remains of the Petersburg Gasworks. Wood planks cover the windows of the brick building, which features holes along the roof and sides from battle. A large pile of brick rubble covers the ground on the side of the building, and a wagon sits at the far end with a painted sign on the side that reads "Photographic Wagon Engineer Department".
