[QUOTE=ethereal_reality;8451072]AND......while we're on the subject.


Here is a mystery intersection, somewhere, along the Spruce Goose route.

As you can see there are plenty of clues.


UNLV



First of all...note that the cross street is one-way. (maybe it still is)


The guy on the right, wearing the white pants, is about to be pick-pocketed!








Here's a closer look at the building on the right.

My kingdom for the name of the restaurant.

This has nothing to do with the location of the intersection....but

The sign(s) clearly shows that Howard Hughes hired the 'Star House Movers, Inc.'.

(the moving signs, no doubt, appear in the other photographs as well)...but this is the first time I noticed them. Duh.

Note- one sign is being installed mid-journey. (the others might have been newly installed as well)

Have we looked into the history of Star House Movers on NLA?

Also..here are the markings on the cabs of the two trucks holding the scaffolding.



#53 and #33. I believe they are city trucks, correct?

p.s. I'm not sure what the men on the scaffolding are doing. -any ideas?


The trucks appear to belong to the Los Angeles Transit Lines (L.A.T.L.); the older truck has the old L.A.R.Y. (Los Angeles Railway) lettering on the cab. The newer truck has the L.A.T.L. logo. The men on the scaffolding probably removed the trolley wires, which were in the path of the Spruce Goose.
