Ten years later, and here's a larger version of the Broadway picture posted by GW earlier today.

Behind Mercantile Place, the Delaware Hotel now has much closer neighbors.


Detail of picture above.

The Delaware Hotel still appears on the 1910 Baist map (posted earlier), even though the first Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles was built on the site that year. The theater, later known as the Arcade Theater, closed in the late-80s, and is now used for retail.
