title: Residence of Lucy[?] Longstreet on Palm Avenue (Adams Street), Los Angeles, ca.1920

description: Photograph of residence of Lucy[?] Longstreet on Palm Avenue (Adams Street), Los Angeles, ca.1920. The residential street is lined with tall thick palm trees. Two-story houses are visible behind the trees on both sides of the street. A man is standing in the yard of one to the left. The residence has been mistakenly[?] associated with Confederate General James Longstreet probably based on a letter to the Herald Express (1940 February 5): "About 1875, Confederate General Longstreet acquired the 40 acres on the northeast corner of Figueroa and West Adams streets. He did what was possibly up to that time the most extensive grading job done in Los Angeles. He made a pleasing slope up to where the house was to be built, a slope such as we used to read about in southern love stories. He built a mansion of Southern grandeur and elegance and made the entrance from West Adams, between the palms which he planted, a southern romance. He planted the whole place with orange trees and it became the showplace of Southern California...".
