Here's another interesting park....City Garden.
enlarged detail
 -note the impressive City Garden Pavilion, constructed in 1877. -each arched entryway says City Garden.
City Garden of Eberle Bros., San Pedro & Kohler Sts., Los Angeles Cal.

It was at what is now the NE corner of San Pedro and E. 8th St.
The 1884 Stevenson Map of Los Angeles shows San Pedro Street with the dashed line. The unnamed street

of San Pedro and Kohler (note the Kohler property to the east):

North is on the right. The little house with the long porches, the water tank with shed behind, the bowling alley
and the dancing pavilion (the building on the fold in the map) are all there, almost exactly like the 1880 drawing:
