1889 - Looking south on Olive Avenue toward San Fernando Road

1889

Looking down Olive Avenue toward San Fernando in 1889. Near current intersection of Olive Avenue and Kenneth Road. The horsecar tracks are in clear view from the horsecar line that ran from the Southern Pacific Station to Sunset Canyon. This image came from a collection of negatives donated by the Delores Palmer Estate. She was a BUSD employee for many years and authored the book "A History of Burbank."
