Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Southern Pacific Arcade Depot, Los Angeles, ca.1900. The Depot's central building stands at the right with a peaked roof and three floors, striped cloth canopies extended over the windows. In front, a rider waits in a horse-drawn carriage near a fenced-off palm tree. Two men wait to either side of the Depot's entrance. To the right, a second carriage stands parked in front of the long, squat annexes connected to the Depot. They terminate in a two-floored section with two chimneys extending from its own peaked roof. A final man stands to the extreme right corner of the image.
