Not to be confused with its namesake in Glendale (see posts 8718 and 8721), this is the El Miradero at 5424 Franklin Avenue as it looked in 1925.

The USC photoset includes these four interior views.

Today, the El Miradero is hidden behind a rather large tree. This was the only angle at which I could get a GSV image showing the lattice beside the front door. The base of one of the twisted columns is also visible. Bars have been added to the windows, and it could do with a coat of paint or a good wash, but otherwise the El Miradero looks to have survived in pretty good shape.
