here's the link to the web site

Probable Location of the Original
Pueblo de la Reina de los Ángeles
on the River Porciúncula

i'm gonna have to agree that the original location of the plaza was north and west of the current location......it's quite an interesting story

Very interesting, indeed! I have to say - discovering that the present Plaza is actually not the site of the original Plaza is one of the more surprising "new" facts I've discovered as a direct result of our discussions on this thread. Bravo for finding that linked webpage! Lots of important information there.
