Martin_Pal, here's another.
North Main Street showing, from left to right, the Pico House...the Merced Theater...the Masonic Building and several other buildings.

note the huge white sign advertising SIGNS on the side of the Merced Theater building.
As most of you know, it's visible in many vintage aerials of the area.
So, everything to the right of this red line is long gone. (there's already a parking lot in the black & white aerial above)

Contemporary view looking northeast from Arcadia Street.
2009 I believe.

and a bit closer. (the trees have grown and now block the view of the Pico House
) -or maybe it's the low angle of the google_camera

As a reminder, here is the Pico House, The Merced Theater and the Masonic Building back in the 1870s.
