The question mark is not needed; the Richfield tower is distinctive. Is that the top of the LAPL peeking out on the left? If so, this is probably looking south on Flower from Bunker Hill. Edit: the large building on the left side of the street in the middle distance is the California Club, so I think this actually is Flower. |
Here's roughly the same location in the 1940s, taken from the famous (on this thread)
"A Drive Through Bunker Hill".
