Description
Photograph of Cahuenga Boulevard after widening with homes perched precariously next to the street, ca.1935. The newly paved road can be seen in the foreground and disappears in the background at left. Several automobiles can be seen on the street, and a line of utility poles runs along the side of the road. A low hill can be seen at center, and three houses are braced near the edge of the rise. See USC-0-1-1-3452, which shows the same street while it is being widened.
