Description
Photograph of a panoramic view of Los Angeles looking south on Broadway from a hill on First Street, ca.1875. The dry soil and brush of the hill are visible in the foreground, showing the craftsman-style residences of the city below. A tall tenement building stands on the corner to the right of Broadway. Mountains are visible in the distance. The Los Angeles Times building is apparently located out of the frame to the left foreground corner, where a white fence appears.
