Historic Photos of 2241 Hobart Blvd.
An amazing album of 8 X 10 photos, more than fifty of them, not only of the exterior but of every room in one of the grandest of old West Adams homes, the 4,946 square foot Craftsman mansion at 2241 S Hobart Blvd. built in 1910 by Los Angeles merchant Benjamin F. Johnson, one of the founders of what is today Downtown's Grand Central Market. This wonderful album was made available to us by Benjamin F. Johnson's great granddaughter, Katharine Free Liappas. A good way to see the photos is by using the Slideshow link on the left menu. Once there you can change the speed or the size of the photos using drop-down menus at the top of the screen. The full screen slideshow works fine, but gives you several error messages in starting up, asking if you want to continue. Go ahead, as that is the best view of the photos. You can exit full screen by pressing the ESC key. See our story about this house elsewhere in our website.
