Description
Photograph of panoramic view of downtown Los Angeles, showing Pershing Square and the Biltmore Hotel, ca.1935. In the foreground at center, a decorative, domed pinnacle tops an unseen structure. At center, several trees line a large grassy area. To the far right, a wide street can be seen extending into the background at center. Several cars move along the street or remain parked along the curb. Along the sidewalk, large structures can be seen running adjacent to the road. An American flag can be seen atop one of the larger structures. In the background at center, additional buildings can be seen. A small clock tower is visible near another flagpole above one of the structures.
