Photograph of an exterior view of the Second Church of Christ Scientist on Adams Boulevard near Figueroa Street, ca.1910. The large, Romanesque building is at center and its façade faces slightly to the left. A row of six large columns holds up an overhang that covers the front porch. A large, dark colored dome with a cupola on top can be seen in the middle of the roof of the light-colored building. Several large arched windows are visible around the edge of the structure, and decorative molding can be seen around the upper edges of the walls. A low marble fence separates the yard of the church from a sidewalk in the foreground.
