Photograph of a panoramic view of Hollywood looking west from Santa Monica Boulevard and Highland Avenue, 1929. A curved road comes in from left to meet in a crossroads at the Dairy Products building at right. Several automobiles are parked along the sidewalks, and in front of a long building at the left. An automobile has driven across the grass in the building's lot to park. Much of the frame appears to be wide-open, full of large lots. The rest appears to be industrial or business buildings. A line of trees is visible in the distance to the left. Mansfield Avenue is visible on the left, Romain Avenue to the right.
