Description
Paul de Longpre´'s home was located on the west side of Cahuenga Blvd. at Hollywood Blvd. on property Longpre´ obtained from Daeida Hartell Wilcox Beveridge after he moved to Los Angeles in 1889. The artist, who was born in Lyons, France, desired the 65-foot-deep lots for a large flower garden, which at one time included over 4,000 roses. The residence was a popular tourist destination in the late 1890s/early 1900s. The home was demolished in 1927.
Panoramic view of Hollywood, with scattered houses on the city blocks. In the center of the photo with two towers is the rear of the Paul de Longpre residence at Hollywood and Cahuenga Boulevards. Highland Avenue is in the foreground.
