Description
Photograph of an exterior view of Hazard's Pavilion (later the site of the Temple Auditorium) at the intersection of Fifth Street and Olive Street, Los Angeles, ca.1895. The three-story clapboard building features two towers annexed to either side of the main building. A paved path curves in to the left from the bottom center of the frame, lined to each side by grass, trees and other flora. The Pavillion was built in 1887 it contained 4,000 seats and cost a daunting $25,000 to build. In 1906, it was torn down and replaced by the Temple Auditorium, built by the Temple Baptist Church, which later became known as the Philharmonic Auditorium. A second large, mansion-like building can be seen in the distance to the left. Record file reads "Academy of Music".
