Here's the section you're talking about, AlvaroLegido. I've inset the relevant section of the key.

Here are a selection of posts covering some of the locations. It's worth clicking the links as each post contains more pictures and information.

From post #4115, the Capitol Milling Co and Cable Railway Viaduct.

It is on the SW corner of Upper Main and College St. That building burned down on November 9, 1887, but in this photo it has obviously been rebuilt.

The three-story building next to Heywood Bros, which is actually on the NE corner of Buena Vista and College, is the Mullally Block. The July 1, 1887 Los Angeles Times describes the plans for the Mullally Block as being "in the hands of the architect," so its construction must not have been far off. At the far right edge of the photo past the Mullally Block is the Woodhead residence on the SE corner of Buena Vista and College.
Post #7811 also has a picture of the brick River Station building.

These were just the first search results I got for each place - there's much more information to be found on NLA. For example, we've seen the wooden bridge over the Cornfield site several times.
