Description: A panoramic view of Beverly Gardens Park, in Beverly Hills, at the corner of Beverly and Santa Monica. The Beverly Gardens Park extends on either side of Beverly, which is in the center of the image. The park has wide, flat lawns with a few flower beds, paths, and young trees. On the right a large sign reading "Beverly Hills" stands behind a wide, shallow pool. Both the sign and the house on Beverly on the right are still there. Most of the land beyond the park is undeveloped. Writing in white in the lower left corner reads "Pierce ; 8020".
Information about the park from Early Beverly Hills, Mark Wanamaker, 2005, p. 58. Note from finding aid: LC - PanUSGeog - Calif. No. 16.
