riichkay, I somehow missed your post the first time around. . .luckily, I saw it today. :) Quote:
Edit. I just realized the building is the back of the garage at 7406 and it's still there! (circled below) https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/6...922/ZijwVf.jpg google-earth I edited riichkay's excellent post. To see his complete post go Here. . |

Someone on eBay is selling negatives in groups of 10 or 11. Here are two of the them. (as positives) This first one is a mystery location. #1 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...924/BMomie.jpg eBay The car (in motion) saves the photo from being mundane. The seller posted this next one backwards, so I flipped it. #2 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...922/rvh2ez.jpg eBay I think I know the area where this one was taken but I don't recognize the road with the white, wooden side-rail. (far left) . . .more coming. . |

:previous: Here's a closer look at Neg. #2. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...922/4wcTrC.jpg You can clearly see Blozzani but what's Zani's. (far left) . |

And here are negatives 3 and 4. (both mystery locations) Well, I guess the first one isn't much of a mystery. As you can see, it's the 2500 block of west 7th Street. #3 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...924/HITFtv.jpg ebay The Louvre...... . .an interesting looking place. I'd say it's an art gallery or an artist supply store. Waddya' think? #4 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...922/Q4tYGH.jpg This one is a bit confusing. I'd say it's either a photo-shoot. . . or the attractive lady is simply adjusting her shoe while waiting to cross the street. And what kind of pole is she leaning on? It looks like a sawed-off street-light. Link . |

I have an original abstract painting that I inherited from my aunt's estate. The artist's name is***** and the date on the painting is 1953. On the back frame of the painting is the address of the gallery where it was purchased: The Louvre, 2451 W. 7th Street,Los Angeles, CA.By 1956, the CD lists the Plumbers Local Union No 78 at 2451 W 7th Street. A demo permit was issued in 1976. The building to the left of The Louvre (above the head of the man on the hydrant) is the back of the extant Park Wilshire Apartments. |

Here's an aerial photograph that captures The Louvre! https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...922/wesfZZ.jpg historichouses It's from GaylordWilshire's blog. . .in a post about the Feuerborn-Murray house. (visible to the left of The Louvre in the aerial above) It appears that 'The Louvre' building was built in front of the Feuerborn-Murray garage. (shown below) https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...923/wGAMoI.jpg historichouses I hope you don't mind that I posted these images, GW. :) Link . |

Happened upon this photo today. The address is on it! And you know it's a period photo with those gas prices! https://images.fineartamerica.com/im...eorge-rose.jpg Caption: HOLLYWOOD, CA: Rowdy New Year's Eve revelers party on the famed Sunset Blvd. in this 1979 Hollywood, California, photo across the street from the Whiskey A-Go-Go nightclub.

Los Angeles has been wet this month.
The wettest Decembers in Los Angeles since records began in 1871: 1889: 15.8 inches 2010: 10.23 inches 2021: 9.72 inches Normal average December rainfall: 2.23 inches Days we had measurable rain this month: Dec. 7, 9, 13, 14, 16, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30. The National Weather Service tweeted this out yesterday afternoon: "Not surprisingly, we have broken the daily rainfall record at Downtown LA with 2.34" as of 300 PM this afternoon. This record total will increase as light rain will continue through this evening." The old record was 1.85" set in 1936. (I don't know if they mean daily record for December or just in general.) I wonder what the consecutive days rainfall record is; we had rain 9 days in a row! This page has a video of rain flooding Union Station yesterday: https://ca.news.yahoo.com/video/reco...014053695.html |

Here's an excellent original snapshot of a McDonnel's that was listed a few days ago on eBay. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...924/MqssZM.jpg I was surprised to see that it was already gone. (from eBay) I can't help myself. Here it is LARGER. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/xq90/924/3FwQTR.jpg I see that there is a street number on the building next door. . |
