Description

Photograph of the exterior of U.S. Grant, Jr.'s residence in San Diego, ca.1905. The large, Victorian house is mostly blocked from view by the fronds of several large palm trees in the yard, leaving part of one wall, a balcony and the roof as the only visible parts of the house. The roof is steeply sloped, and there are three tall rectangular chimneys visible. In the front corner of the house is a cylindrical tower topped by a conical roof. Separating the house from the two intersecting streets in front of it are a row of bushes and a low brick wall.
