Photograph of Long beach's East side Park and the road to San Pedro, ca.1905. The unpaved road begins on the right side of the image and winds its way around a corner in the center. The park is on the right, and is full of dense trees. To the left of the road is the ocean, as well as a fence, a line of utility poles and a large drainage pipe that empties into the ocean. There is sparse vegetation growing on the slope leading down from the road to the water. A shoreline can be seen on the left side in the distance.
