Description
An adult and three children stand in front of the left side of Longfellow Grammar School. The school is surrounded by a dirt field. Longfellow Grammar School was constructed to replace an older building destroyed by the 1906 earthquake. It stood at 275 Terraine Street near North San Pedro and West Julian Streets. It was closed in the early 1970s as an earthquake hazard and its students were transferred to Hester Elementary School. The site is now a vacant lot.
