The HDL notes say "Figueroa 5th to 6th". I posted this picture a couple of months ago, and I believe the building on the right (under the TWA advert) is the one behind the little house.

Here are a couple of aerials. The Richfield Building is roughly in the center near the bottom. I've arrowed where I think the little house was.

1948

1952

This is another HDL picture from 1957 (previously posted by FredH).


Huntington Digital Library

The white building with columns is the Bur Mar Hotel, so, using the 1956 CD (below), the dark wooden building next to it must be the St Dunston Apartments. If these apartments are the ones on the left of Tetsu's picture, then could the little house have belonged to Ray F Allman?
