description: Photograph of a panoramic view showing 200 degrees of Los Angeles looking east from hillside above Broadway (formerly Fort Street), May 13, 1869 (1868?).

One theory claims that the original image did not show the photographer and that he (or possibly someone else) later added himself to the image. Another theory speculates that the original did indeed have the photographer in the image but was later falsely corrected with the intention of rectifying history by editing the photographer out of the image." -- unknown author.

Trees and shrubs line the banks of the creek. In the background towards the right is the pueblo.; "The Pueblo is made entirely of adobe -- earth mixed with water and straw, then either poured into forms or made into sun-dried bricks. The walls are frequently several feet thick. The roofs of each of the five stories are supported by large timbers -- vigas -- hauled down from the mountain forests. Smaller pieces of wood -- pine or aspen latillas -- are placed side-by-side on top of the vigas; the whole roof is covered with packed dirt. The outside surfaces of the Pueblo are continuously maintained by re-plastering with think layers of mud. Interior walls are carefully coated with thin washes of white earth to keep them clean and bright. The Pueblo is actually many individual homes, built side-by-side and in layers, with common walls but no connecting doorways. In earlier days there were no doors or windows and entry was gained only from the top." -- unknown author.
