Looking southward (again), the F line will continue to 116th St. Its rails once were part of the L.A. & Redondo Ry. until the Great Merger of 1911.

Yep, that's Florence and Vermont. I went to Mt. Carmel High School nearby on Hoover, and walked to Vermont to catch the RTD. The Plymouth building lasted thru till the '70s, if I'm not mistaken...it was painted green back in the 1970's and it was Southwest Chevrolet back then.
