old cd of mine.

I wonder what hotel that is at far right? (notice the rooftop sign)

I found this image in the USC digital archive, C.C. Pierce collection although their copy is reversed (the 'hotel' sign reads backwards). In their caption material this is identified as the Bilderain Adobe. With the image in it's correct orientation, we're looking south down Buena Vista or Justicia across Temple Street at the north elevation of the courthouse. Which places the hotel at or near the intersection of Temple and Broadway. 'The Aberdeen' or 'The Buena Apts'? Although in both cases I believe they would have supplanted this adobe.
