Description
Photograph of the residence of John Graff (an early Los Angeles pioneer) on the corner of Jefferson Boulevard and Figueroa Street, 1886. Later the home of Ana B. Packman. This two-story adobe known as "Casa Figueroa" may have been built by Ramon Figueroa in the early 1850s. Gable roofs and dormer windows have altered the original architecture. A wooden rail runs around the perimeter of the covered porch upon which sit four chairs. View is across the lawn through palms and other plants. Roses cover most of the porch roof.
