Hill Street, First Methodist Episcopal Church to the right, Los Angeles, California

 

1900s

 

 

This was the second building for this church, begun in 1899 on Sixth Street opposite Central Park (later Pershing Square, on the left). The view looks north from Sixth Street, showing a rounded front entrance facing a corner. A trolley is on the tracks in the distance, and people are walking. The bottom of the card just to the right of the middle is stained brown. On the divided back the publisher's number is A 99, and the slogan "On the Road of a Thousand Wonders" suggests that the card was part of a promotion of The Coast Line-Shasta Route of the Southern Pacific Railroad.
