Description
A front view of Brand Library with the circular driveway and central fountain. At this point in the history of the library and park, the single driveway entry has been developed into a double entry with circular drive at the foot of the staircase. The driveway leading to the porte cochere, below the tower bedroom has now been filled in as lawn. The white minarets of the greenhouse can be seen faintly to the left. The minarets are one of the recognizable features of El Miradero, the former home of Leslie C. Brand. Title supplied by cataloger.
