Description: Photo of Olive Avenue shortly after the founding of Burbank. View is looking north. On the left side a part of the Burbank Times can be seen. Right next is the old boomtime hotel, the Burbank Villa Hotel followed by the Burbank Block, erected in 1889. Historical Notes: The Burbank Villa Hotel was built in 1887 by Dr. Burbank and his son-in-law John W. Griffin at a cost of $30,000.00. It was later renamed the Santa Rosa Hotel and remodeled into apartments. By the late-1920s, it had been torn down and replaced with the post office located at 135 E. Olive Avenue.
