Notes

Description

View facing southeast towards Santa Monica Pier from Palisades Park. People enjoy the park, including a young woman standing among palm trees a couple seated on a bench and a couple at the cliff-edge rustic eucalyptus branch fence.
At some point after WWII the rustic branch fence at Palisades park was replaced with two types: a pre-cast concrete fence with a criss-cross design and a wood board fence. Bartlett photographs of Palisades Park dated 1946 show the rustic branch fence and the wood rail fence.
