Description
Photograph of Santa Monica Boulevard looking west from Western Avenue in Hollywood, 1906. A house, at left, is obscured by the heavy foliage of the eucalyptus trees that line the street. A streetcar pole in the center of the unpaved road reads "Cars Stop Here Only". The lot on which the house sits is on the southwest corner and measures 168' x 169'. It was sold in 1902 for $2500 and later leased in 1927 for $3,771,000 for a period of ninety-nine years.
