Help IDing a location from a movie
Hi
I hope it's okay to post this query here - I'm trying to identify a location from the 1982 Death Wish II movie, which was filmed entirely in LA. Below are a couple of screengrabs from the film, please pipe up if you recognize the landmark (I'd imagine it's very obvious to many people reading!). Thanks! https://i.imgur.com/kFbZVm0.png https://i.imgur.com/woKA5PE.png |

I posted Julius Shulman pictures of the Triforium almost two years ago in post #33262. Those images date from 1975, so fairly close to the time when Death Wish II was filmed. |

Is this the method you use, e_r? I know that you're an Imageshack user. I also noted that Eddy's post contains extra IMG tags. I'm not familiar with Imageshack's linking methods, but I assume that if you select "Forum" as the link type, it automatically includes these. In practice that means that you don't need to use the "Insert Image" button - just paste the link code directly into the reply window. That's the way Photobucket works, so maybe someone can confirm that Imageshack does too. Eddy - once you figure it out, you can always go back and edit your post on the previous page to use a smaller version of the image. Note that Imageshack automatically includes a link back to your original image in the code, so anyone wanting to see the full-size image just needs to click on it. Feel free to send me a PM if you need more help. |

We can't leave Bolsa Chica without passing along this very noirish episode indeed.
If you're not in the mood for shocking and gruesome, you might want to save reading this until some other time... https://s26.postimg.org/54y7b0lqh/Bolsa111482.jpg Los Angeles Times 11/14/1882, via ProQuest via CSULB Library. https://s26.postimg.org/i93rntvtl/Bolsa111982.jpg Los Angeles Times 11/19/1882, via ProQuest via CSULB Library. |

Greetings y'all, check out this https://esotouric.com/2018/01/12/mccarthy/ collection of images that recently went live. A few of them, like the one below, are of "unidentified street(s)"—don't they know to call the NLA'ers in times like that?

Hey, here's an ID query—I've had this slide for a while and always figured it was the Aida in Bunker Hill on Flower.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4606/...1ed44c96_c.jpg ...until I actually scanned it and peered at it and compared to actual images of the Aida at 247. So, who's an idea where this was? The address from what I can muster was "343." https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4611/...a57b19fc_c.jpg |

Isn't that the entrance to Mercantile Place at left? |

Looking at your picture more closely, it looks like there is a gap between the Aida and its neighbor on the left. Here is the 1950ish Sanborn of the corner of Flower and W 3rd: https://i.imgur.com/kByUk0M.jpg lapl.org Maybe the picture was taken looking north on 3rd St? the gap lines up, but it doesn't explain the street number. |
When I posted that picture of the abandoned church...for sure I though y'all would be excited to see the inside..except I got no reaction,no feedback...wow tough crowd, think I'll stick to the urbex crowd..seems like everyone in this joint is more interested in deciphering turn of the century street scenes... p.s thanks hossc and ethereal_city for the tips ✌🏽️

Bolsa Chica Gun Club Feud
odinthor, it looks like the rich bankers up in Los Angeles might have pulled a reverse "Owens Valley" on the local farmers by flooding their peatland.
The animosity between the peatland farmers and the Bolsa Chica Club continued for quite some time https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/8...924/Ydt7X7.jpg los angeles herald AUG. 27, 1902 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/xq90/922/oaSuPZ.jpg los angeles herald Alas, the court decision goes against the farmers. MARCH 1903 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/xq90/924/lDPXsj.jpg los angeles herald post-court decision Whoop-Ass.
