Description
Photograph of the exterior of the San Diego County Courthouse, ca.1907. The three-story courthouse stands at center, separated from the sidewalk that surrounds it,by a brick wall, in front of which people can be seen. The tallest section of the building stands between two, smaller two-story sections to which it is attached. A clock tower extends from the center, topped by a statue of what appears to be a militia-man, as well as at least three more around its base. An early automobile can be seen parked on the street to the right.
