Description
Photograph of an aerial view of Whittier Downs looking east, 1951. At center, an "H"-shaped building stands in a cleared lot, connected to two smaller buildings just in front of it. Surrounding the lot, rows of what appear to be residential homes can be seen. To the left, an orchard or park is visible. Agricultural fields appear to be in the background.
