I found this photograph earlier tonight on ebay.
The Cliff Cafe on Point Fermin, San Pedro CA (Los Angeles Harbor) circa 1917

I am surprised by the various pathways and stairs leading down to the ocean.

Point Fermin Cafe in the 1930s or 40s. Was this built on the site of the earlier cafe?

The Point Fermin Cafe looking south.
Today there are no death defying stairways leading down to the ocean. The 1930s era cafe is on the right.
