Description
Photograph of Pasadena Avenue (formerly North Figueroa Street) in Highland Park, looking north, Los Angeles, 1915. Two trolley cars move along their tracks in the center of the street while a group of pedestrians await their arrival just off the sidewalk to the left, next to a horse-drawn carriage. Two-story shopfronts line the left side of the street, extending their cloth canopies over the sidewalk. The Romanesque architecture of the bank can be seen at right, with the word "Bank" inscribed on its window. Utility poles support the web of trolley car cables that stretches above the scene.
