Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Hollenbeck Hotel at the intersection of Second Street and Spring Street, Los Angeles, ca.1905. Streetcars are pictured making their way down either side of the three-story Romanesque hotel, which is pictured on the corner at center. Pedestrians, including a man riding a strange, bicycle-like contraption can be seen navigating the sidewalks. The column of a larger building is visible in the right foreground. The signs on the streetcars read "Hollywood", "Griffin Ave.", "Redondo", and "2nd & Spring Streets". Other legible signs from left to right include "Orpheum / Marceau Fotografer.", "Hoffman", "Magun Cigar", "S. Conradi", "Whedon", "Deans S. Right / Gen. Arthur Cigar", "M.K. Young", "Dr. Corbin", "Dr. Rowell" and "Bank".
