Description
Photograph of the Bank of Italy Building at the junction of Temple Street, Main Street and Spring Street looking east, Los Angeles, 1926. The nine-story building, sporting molded archways over some of its upper windows, towers to the right of a street in which streetcar tracks can be seen. People stand on the sidewalk both on the corner in front of the Bank of Italy and across the street from it, towards the foreground of the photograph. A horse-drawn carriage rides between these sidewalks. In the distance, in front of a three-story building with gothic architecture, a streetcar can be seen running perpendicular to the main road. Pedestrians fill the street, both on foot and on bicycles.
