Description
Caption dated May 1, 1947 reads, "This sketch illustrates the area in the freeway program where improper planning has excluded provisions for rail malls, threatening rapid transit between the Valley and downtown Los Angeles. The rail lack occurs between Highland Avenue, near Hollywood Bowl, southeast across Hollywood to Hoover Street where the Hollywood Freeway joins the Santa Monica Freeway, and thence generally along Beverly Boulevard to First Street-Glendale Boulevard, portal of the tunnel to the Subway Terminal."
