Description
Photograph of an exterior view of Antonio Jose Rocha's adobe, as seen from the north side at the corner of Cadillac Street and Shenandoah Street, Los Angeles, ca.1921. The two-story adobe, built in 1864, is pictured at center and appears to have a wrap-around porch shaded by the roof's eaves. Three darkly-colored chickens stand around a chair near one of the doors. A pile of rubble is partially visible to the right. One of the panes of glass is missing from the upper left window. The road is unpaved. Picture file card reads: "Rancho Rincon de los B[oy]les". Rocha was an early settler in LA from Portugal.
