The Standard building is two stories, with a set of exterior steps leading to the second story. The rear of the building is full of debris, as though a demolition project had occurred. A utility pole is also at the back of the building. In the foreground we see a small shed with a picket fence against it. To the left of the Standard building is the lower end of Budd Inlet, with a long wharf extending into the water. We can dimly see a figure by the waterfront, sweeping or poling a canoe.
