That's an amazing piece, congrats.
Wouldn't it be nice to know that, 100 years from now, some as-yet-unborn whippersnappers of the future will be able to nail down our present-day historical details like we're doing today for those of our past generations? You know it'll happen! Unfortunately, we just won't live to see it. ^^

By the way, I've been meaning to ask. Is anybody archiving this thread? This has become a very important online source on the subject of L.A. history, but unfortunately, websites like this tend not to endure for very long. I wouldn't even count on skyscraperpage.com being here next year, let alone 5, 10, 20, 50+ years from now...
