View of Hill Street with both Pershing Square (center) and the Biltmore Hotel present in the background. On the far right are the Temple Baptist Church and the Auditorium Building. The Pacific Mutual Life Insurance building is to the left of the Biltmore on Olive. In the foreground on the corner of the park where Hill and 6th meet, a woman waits to cross the street, where streetcar tracks run in both directions. A sign reads, "U.S.O. 2 blocks" with an arrow pointing north on Hill Street. Behind the sign, one of the parks commemorative statues, this one in memory of Civil War veterans, greets park visitors as they enter on the corner.
