Did a search and didn't find this photo so thought I'd post it since it was in
the paper about a week ago. It's part of an exhibition of photos by Pedro E. Guerrero, who was Frank Lloyd Wright's personal photographer, that runs April 5 to 25 at Woodbury University Hollywood Gallery, 6518 Hollywood Blvd. George Sturges House 449 N.

Here is a picture of the Alhambra Hotel. According to LAPL it was shot in 1923.
http://jpg2.lapl.org/spnb1/00017403.jpg LAPL The Alhambra Hotel is moved across the street by the Kress House Moving Co. A sign explains the move. The hotel was 6 stories high, and weighed 11,000 tons. I couldn't tease anything out of the sign at this resolution. |
Hi All!
I stumbled upon your page recently while doing some research and have been thoroughly enjoying making my way through the (now) 360 pages of it (you were at 354 when I started). I wanted to thank you for all the amazing images you’ve posted, and plan to keep visiting regularly in the future. I’ll admit that I haven’t had time to read all your conversations yet, but I’ve bookmarked a few dozen pages that I want to re-visit as soon as I can. While it is disappointing to know that so much of Los Angeles’ architectural legacy has been torn down, it’s equally wonderful to see both a then AND now picture. As part of my introduction of myself, I thought I’d also tell you a bit about the project some friends and I are working on -- tracking down and mapping all the filming locations of the 1980’s CBS TV show “Scarecrow and Mrs. King”. In many ways it’s a much more narrow focus than you have here, but we also get to identify the sprinkling of footage from D.C. and stock footage from various times and places. We’ve found more than 300 locations now, with lots more left to find. Once we get the 4th and final season on DVD (presumably next March) we should be able to locate everything, just in time for the show’s 30th Anniversary in October 2013. That’s the plan, anyway. ;) SMK did quite a bit of filming in Hancock Park, at Griffith Park, and down by the Santa Fe train yards/warehouses/bridges, along with visiting numerous places surrounding Los Angeles (they liked Marina Del Rey and Pasadena, in particular). Once we’ve got S4 we’ll have some nice interior shots of The Biltmore and an episode that featured Chinatown as well. Yes, lots of variety. :) If you’d like to see our full Filming Locations thread, here’s the link (we’re only on page 31): http://scarecrowandmrskingforum.yuku...1#.T33Zi47lXbk |
Many of the locations SMK used you have already discussed here, and I thought you might like some mid-80’s reference images to add to the collection. So I’ll post some screencaps with the episode titles and original airdates…starting with a couple that are no longer with us….

Thanks to WS1911 here are some pictures of the Alhambra Hotel shortly after it decided to move around LA.
http://digitallibrary.usc.edu/assets...CHS-36546?v=hr USC Digital Library http://digitallibrary.usc.edu/assets...CHS-43832?v=hr USC Digital Library Photograph of an birdseye view of the Alhambra Hotel after it was moved, 1924. The six-story hotel can be seen in the background and rests on a series of metal girders. In the foreground, workers can be seen near where the hotel used to be. Utility wires can be seen at right. A sign on the bottom story of the hotel reads: "This 6-story re-enforced concrete building 60 x 123 feet, weighing 11,000 tons - was moved 130 feet sideways by the Kress House Moving Company of Los Angeles." |
I don't recall these pictures of City Hall (Oops, lousy memory, we had visited this photos last in 2009, time for a revisit):
http://digitallibrary.usc.edu/assets...CHS-31220?v=hr USC Digital Library http://digitallibrary.usc.edu/assets...CHS-36632?v=hr USC Digital Library Photograph of an exterior view of Los Angeles City Hall under construction, showing framework for the entire building, 1928. City Hall sits at center, with all but its lowest stories defined by an open framework of beams. A white facade has been applied to the ground level of the building, as well as to portions of the right side. Other buildings of downtown can be seen in the foreground and to the left, including the "Bank of Italy. International Branch" and the "[L]os Angeles [Dai]ly Journal". |
