Title	Aerial View of William Land Park
Date	1925
Description	This rare aerial view of William Land Park was taken in circa 1925. Freeport Boulevard runs diagonally, north-south, on the left side of the photograph. To the left of that are administrative and academic buildings of the newly-founded Sacramento Junior College. In the upper, right-hand corner of the photograph is the burgeoning William Land Park and its unfinished, 75-acre, nine-hole golf course. Bridle trails and roads wind through and around the park. In the middle portion of the photograph, Thirteenth and Eleventh Avenues run east-west into Freeport Boulevard through a nascent Land Park neighborhood. A wheat field and several other crops are parceled out in the bottom of the photograph.
