Description
Photograph of an adobe on Wordsworth Street near Jefferson Street, Los Angeles, ca.1905. The adobe longhouse is in obvious disrepair with shingles falling form the roof and clapboard missing from the exterior walls. A ladder is leaning up against the narrow wall next to an opening on the second floor, possibly the attic. Crates and debris are visible in the overgrown lawn to the right in front of the peeling walls behind the porch. Trees are visible in the background.
