El Mirador Garage

El Mirador Garage opened about 1929, one year after the El Mirador Hotel. It served the clientele of the hotel as well as the winter population of Palm Springs. The office and fuel area were located in the one-story section of the building on Palm Canyon Drive. Chauffeurs' quarters were provided on the second floor of the building along Tachevah Drive.

HSPB-12. This plaque is sponsored by the McCallum Desert Foundation
