Description

Photograph of an aerial view of the Beverly Hills Hotel and the home of Clara Kimball Young, ca.1918. The hotel is located at the left center of the image, and is identified by its large size and spires. The actress's home is at right center; there are several other homes along the gently curving tree lined roads in the neighborhood, but they are spaced far apart from one another. At the center of the image is a six way intersection of streets.
