Photograph of a view of Broadway north from Fifth Street in Los Angeles(?), [s.d.]. The street is wide and unpaved, and several horse-drawn wagons are making their ways along the road. There is a bicyclist at center, and many pedestrians along the side of the road. There is a tall, three-story Victorian building with awnings on the bottom level at left, and several other tall buildings line both sides of the streets.
