Description
This rare aerial view of William Land Park was taken circa 1930. Freeport Boulevard runs diagonally, north-south, on the left side of the photograph. To the left of that are administrative and academic buildings of the newly founded Sacramento Junior College. In the upper right-hand corner of the photograph is the burgeoning William Land Park and its unfinished 75-acre, nine-hole golf course. Bridle trails and roads wind through and around the park. In the middle portion of the photograph, 13th and 11th avenues run east-west into Freeport Boulevard through a nascent Land Park neighborhood. A wheat field and several other crops are parceled out in the bottom of the photograph.
