Photograph of a northeast view showing Ramona Boulevard after completion, from a point one hundred feet north of the intersection of Mitchell and Echandia Streets, April 16, 1935. The road winds down the center with automobiles in its wide lanes and railroad tracks next to the electrical lines along its left side. Large trees stand in the foreground obstructing the view of the dirt hill on the far right. A residential area lies across the background and a very large, lightly-colored building stands on the far left. Compares to USC-0-1-1-706 and USC-0-1-1-707 taken before and during street construction.
