Description
Photograph of Figueroa Street looking from the west, north of Sixth, ca.1915. In the extreme foreground at center, a wide, paved street can be seen . On the opposite side of the road, a line of utility poles are visible. A long sidewalk runs parallel to the street beside several large homes. The home at right features three sets of stairs leading to the front entryway. Four large columns support an awning above the second level, and a large balcony can be seen on the second level as well. A large palm tree sits in front of this home. At center, a large two-story home with a sloping roof, a small set of stairs leading to the side of the building, and a small balcony on the second level can be seen. To the far left, two additional buildings are visible. A large structure in the shape of a tower capped with a conical roof can be seen behind one of the structures.
