Hi Paul:

This post card image with a post mark of September 1917 appears to of been taken from the Great Auditorium roof.  Perhaps someone who may have been working  on a ladder on the roof or poking his head out some opening  thought it would be a nice photo.

At the time of this photograph, except for a few trees, there are no gardens to be seen along Ocean Pathway.  Even though the post mark is 1917 , the image may have been taken years before,  but what a difference 103 years makes, and special thanks to the folks who tend those gardens & planters all over the Grove.
