Description
Photograph of an uncompleted elevated bicycle path connecting Pasadena and Los Angeles, ca.1900. Trolley car tracks can be seen in the unpaved street which runs into the distance at center, above which a wooden bicycle pass can be seen, elevated on trestles. In the background, two buildings are visible to the right: one with what appear to be minnarets, the other bearing the words "Pasadena Grand [...]".; A caption below the image reads "Even in 1900, people dreamt of avoiding traffic! Planned to connect Pasadena with Los Angeles but never completed, this elevated bicycle path is shown as it looked in Pasadena".
