Description
Photograph of a view of buildings on the 400 block of Marchessault Street in Los Angeles's Chinatown, November 1933. A long, two-story brick building stretches from the foreground at left into the background at right. Three covered balconies can be seen on the second floor, and large arched windows can be seen between the balconies. On the first floor, several large doorways can be seen near display windows along the entire length of the building. A wide dirt road is visible in the foreground, and three early automobiles can be seen parked along the curb in the background at right.
