http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...1.jpg~original Online Building Records The relocation permit says it was moved to 122 N Avenue 63. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...2.jpg~original Online Building Records The permit also mentions converting the house from SFD (single family dwelling) to an accessory living quarters. I've had a look around that block from the Googlemobile, but couldn't spot it. Having said that, there are a lot of trees, so it could be in there somewhere. |
Stewart Farmhouse

What an odd compound that is, surrounded by parking lots & discount stores: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/6F...t-E=w1366-h768 gsv https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/iO...T3U=w1366-h768 gsv https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/Gv...TxE=w1366-h768 gsv I'm glad the Stewart place has been saved (no sign of it on google maps yet), but I was hoping it would end up somewhere more public. . |

The house seen here is obviously not the Stewart house, but I knew we'd seen it before--- it was seen in post 17851...but the pictures have gone missing. I believe there was some discussion about the owner of this house being sort of a collector of dwellings.... |

There are three entrance gates. (The owner, btw, lives in Whitley Heights.) https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/FY...7iQ=w1366-h768 gia Stewart Farmhouse: http://planning.lacity.org/InternetC....aspx?Id=52090 (item #8) John Lawrence Smith was a doctor and a horticulturalist. John Marcellus Stewart was a gold miner and nurseryman. They'll probably get along fine. I can't wait to see the Stewart home in place. Thank you again so much HossC for finding the address and the owner's name. |
I saw Sudden Fear also, What an interesting movie that really kept you on the edge of your seat! The way the scenes were set up and shot made me nervous. The little toy dog walking toward the closet where Joan Crawford was hiding, or the chain on the fence when Jack Palance was driving trying to find her. But most spectacular was at the end of the movie when she is walking up the street she tosses her scarf to the gutter, she is just gorgeous!

I thought I'd post Julius Shulman pictures of another William H Harrison design today. Looking back, I also posted Julius Shulman pictures of Mr Harrison's Sierra High School back in October. This is "Job 3790: William H. Harrison, Charles Samuels School District (Whittier, Calif.), 1964".
http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...1.jpg~original Here's a closer view of the building on the right. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...2.jpg~original A nice view down the covered walkway. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...3.jpg~original I thought this color image showed the inside of the building in the second picture, but now I think it's the one at the end of the covered walkway. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...4.jpg~original All from Getty Research Institute I found Charles T Samuels Elementary listed at 12214 Oxford Drive, La Mirada, although Google Maps seems to show it as Heights Christian Schools La Mirada Campus. The square building with the blue roof in the lower-left corner wasn't there in 1964, but the rest of the site looks fairly original. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...5.jpg~original Google Maps |

Today's Julius Shulman post takes us back to Long Beach. It's "Job 3261: Hugh Gibbs, Texaco, inc. Field Office Building (Long Beach, Calif.), 1961".
http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...1.jpg~original Here's a close-up of the entrance. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...2.jpg~original The reception area and switchboard. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...3.jpg~original It looks like the offices were very close to a refinery. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...4.jpg~original All from Getty Research Institute Although I didn't find a direct connection with Texaco, I think the building is now part of the Tesoro refinery at 2101 E Pacific Coast Highway, Wilmington. The entrance and a few other details have changed, but the overall size and shape are a good match. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...5.jpg~original Google Maps via supercharge.info |
