Description
Photograph of a view down Broadway, Los Angeles, [s.d.]. Automobiles, cable-car tracks, and cables can be seen down the street that descends into the center background. What appear to be ornaments can be seen hung on trees that line the road. Tall buildings line both sides of the street, and smoke can be seen escaping from a building in the right background. Visible signs include: "Nine-Three-Nine So. Broadway. Los Angeles. Room 800. VA-2542". "Building Being Modernized for Occupancy of Large Business Organizations. For Lease. Inquire Office Building", "United Artists", "Texaco. The Texas Company", "Platt Music Co.", "L.L. Burns Bldg. 910 S. Broadway", "Western Costum[?]", "Radio Supply Co. 912-14 So. Broadway", and "Southern California Gas Company. Dependable Service. Gas".
