Description
Photograph of the exterior of the Hollenbeck Hotel on the corner of Spring Street and Second Street, Los Angeles, ca.1900-1905. The four-story Victorian brick building has a five-story octagonal tower over the main entrance on the corner. There are unfurled awnings at street level. Several automobiles are parked along the curb. A horse-drawn wagon drives down one street at right. A streetcar is visible at left. The perspective looks down through the electrical lines running over streetcar rails. Numerous pedestrians are on the sidewalks and in the street. A street cleaner is sweeping the street directly in front of the hotel entrance.
