Description
Photograph of a birdseye view of Santa Monica's Palisades Park looking north, ca.1905. A broad beach runs along the waterline at left. Bordering the beach is the two-lane Pacific Coast Highway, and running parallel to the highway is a railroad. Several early-model automobiles are parked near the side of the road on the beach. There are steep cliffs at right, and a narrow road climbs up the side of them. There are two piers jutting out into the water at center. The shore juts into the water in the distance, and this land is marked by steep mountains rather than cliffs.
