Anaheim's Lost History

Really appreciate the scoop on The Crown - I live/work about 5 minutes away near City Hall. The small downtown area here was decimated sometime in the 60's, I believe. If I could figure out how, I would post some pics.

Thanks again!

The street is relatively wide (enough for two lanes of traffic in both directions) but rarely used. (Note there are no cars parked on the street in the current Crown photos.) Plus parts of the street still retain their original concrete surface - had not been asphalted over like most.

"There's something going on here!" I said to myself........

...sure enough..... piece of forgotten Anaheim history.
