Although it predate classic 'noir' by twenty years, I find it similarly mystifying.
I realize the clues are sparse, but I'd love to figure out where this was taken.
...and here's a second photograph by the same photographer (also from the 1920s).
-could it provide some additional clues?

I picture this photographer hanging out along the railroad tracks just east of downtown.
(and west of the Los Angeles River)

ER - I think you are right about the location. He was probably right around these three gas holders (they used
to be next to the 101 Freeway) and the railroad tracks.
