Description
Workmen remove trees and shrubbery from in front of W.B. Conger's home at 652 Aerick Street, in Inglewood, so the house can be moved away and a derrick errected in its place. Many such residences are being removed as rapidly as the job can be done, to allow derrick materials and machinery to be erected by George F. Getty, Inc. Getty is having 15 houses moved from lots which he has leased. Photograph dated September 30, 1929.
