The famous avenue of palms in Glendale - Brand Blvd - is fast becoming merely a business street. The stately palm trees, planted 30 years earlier, are being cut down on June 15, 1934, to make room for high power, light and streetcar transmission poles. The photo shows workmen chopping down one of the tall sentinels of beauty just south of Lexington Drive.
