But I also wanted to say that it looks to me like the Figueroa Street house in your pic above is the same as house on left below it--the convex mansard, the iron cresting, the dormers, the little flat dormer over the upstairs windows flanking the center porch, the first-floor porch spindlework.... I have a bunch of pics somewhere of Figueroa Street house & will have to sift through them to see if it can be further identified. Unless there is an intervention and my L.A. obsession is stopped.
I think you're correct G_W.....that looks like the same house. You had a keen eye.....I would have missed that completely.

As for an intervention, I hope to God that NEVER happens. What would we ever do without you?
