Windward Avenue, Venice, California

 

circa 1910

 

 

On the left is the Hotel St. Mark, for which ground was broken in 1904, one of the original buildings in Venice. The hotel, which took up about a block of the originally two-block-long town, was demolished in 1964. Venice once stretched only from the lagoon (at the later traffic circle at Windward and Main) to the Abbot Kinney Pier. The number F 211 is on the divided back of the card, along with the Southern Pacific Railroad promotional message "On the Road of a thousand wonders."
