Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Point Loma Light Station, ca.1900. A lighthouse is visible at center, with two two-story coach houses situated to either side of it, a flag flown from its top and people evident in its crows-nest and at its base. Farther into the foreground, a dirt road is visible on which two horse-drawn carriages can be seen to the left. Small shed-style houses are also visible along the road.
