Description
Photograph of an aerial view of Hollywood Park horse racetrack, ca.1930. Above the center, a large building which seems to be the grand stand for the spectators' seats is crowded by hundreds of people grouped together either inside the spectators' stand or along the racetrack. The racetrack can be seen along the center and then curving in the left center
three small lakes can be seen in the center. In the foreground, what seems to be an area for the horse stables is visible. In the background, behind the spectators, a parking lot with several rows of parked automobiles is observable. Further to the back, a residential area is viewable along with trees and houses.
