I just noticed what might be a cyclorama on the right hand side.
I recognize City Hall, but a couple of the other prominent buildings are a mystery to me. |
I believe the building in the distant horizon is the Sisters of Charity's second orphanage located in Boyle Heights, at Stephenson (now Whittier Blvd.) and Boyle Avenue. The first site for the orphanage is close to where Terminal Annex is now.
