I have the worst time with this particular streetscape. I cannot conform the before and after and I can't get my head around your two different 'befores'. Did the tunnel empty on to Sunset (now Chavez) or Temple? (north end on Sunset, south end on Temple.

I thought it was somewhere around where Hill flies over Chavez now, north of the Fort Moore Memorial:
