Description
Photograph of a birdseye view of the opening of the causeway across Westlake Park, [s.d.]. The causeway goes from the foreground at right to the background at center and crosses a large lake. The lake is surrounded by large leafy trees and the water is calm a smooth. Several tall buildings, as well as many more trees, are visible in the background at left. A small number of people can be seen walking on the causeway. A large group of waterfowl can be seen on the lake at right. The West Coast Westlake Theater can be seen near the road at left. Westlake Park was later called McArthur Park.
