A new building near this pole was in the process of construction when this photo was taken. A few of these old 6-pin telegraph poles nearby needed to be moved. The new ones had 10-pin crossarms.

Following are two photographs of an adjacent (very similar) pole taken down with the old pole and used crossarms laying on the ground. The new 10-pin pole is seen in one of these images.
