Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Hotel Leighton on the corner of Sixth Street and Alvarado Street in Los Angeles, [s.d.]. The four-story hotel is in the distance at center. It is a U-shaped brick building with a courtyard in front. A tall tower topped with a spire can be seen near the back of the building at left, while another spire is at right. Large rectangular windows can be seen on all four stories, and several balconies are visible as well. A row of small trees separates the grounds of the hotel from the unpaved road in front of it. In the foreground is a large, flat, grassy expanse.
