Description
Photograph of a panoramic view of Whittier looking north from the high school, ca.1900. Trees can be seen growing in what appears to be a backyard at center. A small structure, possibly an outhouse, can be seen in the yard. A two-story home is visible at right, while other one- and two-story homes can be seen towards the background. Most of the buildings have sloped roofs, while a road can be seen at right. Utility poles line the road. Mountains can be seen in the background.
