Description
Photograph of a view looking south from Palisades, including a Century plant, ca.1925. The thin stalks of the century plant are in the foreground, and the plant is growing near the top of a rocky cliff that runs along the ocean at right. The ocean itself is at left, and it is bordered by a beach that is covered in wooden buildings. Several cars are parked across the street from these buildings, and a railroad runs in front of the cars. A pier is visible in the distance, and among the things on the pier are a roller coaster and several buildings.
