Photograph of a view of San Pedro Harbor, showing the depot and Dead Man's Island in the background, Los Angeles, ca.1898. A system of docks and railroad tracks surrounds a small pool of the pay in the foreground, with the rest of the unrestrained bay visible in the far background. The tops of several steamboats can be seen above the dock while a collection of dock houses are visible at the end to the right. Smaller, masted ships can be seen in the background water near the breakwater.
