Photograph of an exterior view of Antonio Jose Rocha's adobe, as seen from the north side at the corner of Cadillac Street and Shenandoah Street, Los Angeles, ca.1921. The two-story adobe, built in 1864, is pictured at center and appears to have a wrap-around porch shaded by the roof's eaves. Three darkly-colored chickens stand around a chair near one of the doors. A pile of rubble is partially visible to the right. One of the panes of glass is missing from the upper left window. The road is unpaved. Picture file card reads: "Rancho Rincon de los B[oy]les". Rocha was an early settler in LA from Portugal.
