Description
Photograph of an aerial view looking north of Wilshire Boulevard between La Brea Avenue and Highland Avenue, January 23, 1936. Wilshire runs across the image from left to right in the foreground, while La Brea runs away from the camera at left and Highland parallels it at right. Highland is a wide divided road lined with small buildings and houses, while La Brea and Wilshire are lined with considerably larger buildings. A large cylindrical building is visible near La Brea in the distance. There is an open field at left, and there are large open mountains in the background.
