Description
Photograph of a view of the Arroyo Seco Park and Channel looking northeast after the construction of the Pasadena Freeway, ca.1941. The four-lane freeway is at right and is divided by a dirt median. Three automobiles can be seen traveling on the road. The Arroyo Seco Channel is at left and runs parallel to the freeway. A tractor is visible in the dirt near the edge of the channel at left. Several tall, thin trees can be seen around the road, and the Marmion Way/Avenue 64 Bridge appears in background. A tall hill can be seen in the distance at center. Compares to CHS-14548, showing the pre-construction view.
