There's an interesting article in the Los Angeles Times about the "singular L.A. landmarks and institutions [that] made their debuts in the year 1923."
https://www.latimes.com/california/s...al-los-angeles I enjoyed this colorful postcard within the article and this sentence that made me chuckle: The Hollywood sign, like the city at its feet, rambles horizontally, across 400 feet of hillside, its letters at slightly irregular levels. If they were a starlet’s teeth, they would long since have been straightened out by studio dentists. https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/d...sson-06-fo.jpg Also debuting yesterday on Hollywood Blvd. in 2023: Taco Bell Opens Cantina Restaurant Experience with Historic 1920s Hollywood Flare https://abc7.com/taco-bell-cantina-h...tada/12826512/ |
ANOTHER WESTSIDE MYSTERY HOUSE
https://i.postimg.cc/3x61TJkm/vhsmysteryhouse-bmp.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/7Zvb8Fxb/vhscap-1366x768-bmp.jpg The Venice Historical Society wants to solve a mystery, and I thought the sleuths at NLA might have be able to do it. The caption reads "Dolce Casa: Home of Mr. and Mrs. John F. Humphreys near Venice, California October 1, 1916" https://i.postimg.cc/s2Fr2WxJ/vhsphoto2-737x643-bmp.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/Qd1z0yNp/vhsphoto3-740x654-bmp.jpg Someone on the VHS's facebook page has already found this clew, which looks like it came from Southwest Builder & Contractor or the like: https://i.postimg.cc/RZ7PcJGd/vhsitem-640x347-bmp.jpg |
Venice Evening Vanguard for 22 Jan 1915 has a story of the marriage of Harriet Humphreys, daughter of John F., in their "typical old Spanish home" on Pico Blvd. in Venice.
A 19 Feb 1915 story in LATimes society page has someone visiting the Humphreys at their home on Pico Blvd, "opposite Polytechnic station on the Venice short line." FWIW. Cheers, Earl |

Absolutely, Noir Noir--I think you nailed it down. Just for fun, here's the area at present, courtesy Google Maps: https://i.postimg.cc/bv6r54Wr/Beethoven.jpg Note Ferndale, the short street at left. It is interesting to compare with your aerial photo. Ferndale corresponds to what appears to be the front drive, up to the front of the house (Beethoven doesn't appear to have been "streetified" quite yet there). https://i.postimg.cc/Y9Z9rYpw/Beethoven3.jpg I had been gazing at one of e_r's original photos, and was wondering if in the distance we're seeing a canal. No, we're seeing Venice Blvd. and the tracks for the PE: https://i.postimg.cc/vHRBCrqr/Beethoven2.jpg They're on the terrace of the house which, sensibly, overlooks their planned garden plot (not yet much planted, it appears), with Venice Blvd. and the PE tracks beyond. :cheers: |
953 South Hope, probably end of June 1889
You've struck a rich vein with these cabinet cards, e_r!
I don't believe the chopped-up house in the other photo is the same as this one, which shows a house that has just been moved to the NWC of 10th and Hope from the NEC of Third and Broadway by Eugene Germain, after he'd bought it from attorney Jackson Graves. Please note the palm trees (the one at left is being planted) and, in the left background, the stable and little house to its right: Quote:
In this close-up from a Seaver Center photo we see the same house; the palm tree is planted and the rest of the landscaping is complete. The same stable and small house are in the background. Also, what we can see of the house to the right of the Graves/Germain home matches the cabinet card (if anyone heard a loud gasp a few days ago, that may have been me when I first saw this image): https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...rt_closeup.jpg P-010-0131 @ Seaver Center Here's the same photo from Graves' autobiography, My Seventy Years in California (1927), though the date has to be 1889 or shortly after, not 1888: https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...-_1024_jpg.jpg Hathitrust The right edge of this view, dated 1888, shows the front of the Graves home when it was at the NEC of Third and Fort/Broadway: https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...way_-_1024.jpg BEHR-0072 at CA State Library It seems Graves, the Seaver Center, and whoever wrote on the back of the cabinet card all have the date wrong (Graves also misremembers the house being moved to Tenth and Hill). Here, the June 6, 1889, Los Angeles Times reports that Germain is preparing to move Graves' former home from Third and Fort/Broadway to Tenth and Hope: https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...e_-_larger.jpg ProQuest via LA Public Library The June 21, 1889, Los Angeles Herald wrote that, "One of the most notable residences in Los Angeles eight or nine years ago was that of J. A. Graves, Esq., on the corner of Fort and Third Streets. This house is now on wheels, and traveling down Hill Street, beyond Sixth, on its way to a new site . . . ." So if they were preparing to move the house on June 6, and it was at Sixth and Hill on June 21, I'd say the end of June 1889 would be a decent guess at the cabinet card's date. And here's 953 S. Hope at lower right on the 1894 Sanborn Map, which mostly agrees with the photos: https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...st_-_small.jpg Library of Congress 1891 Los Angeles City Directory: https://hosting.photobucket.com/imag...953_S_Hope.jpg fold3.com Oh yeah almost forgot -- there are photos of the Graves/Germain house in both locations in this Homestead Museum blog article. |

The building in the photo is listed these days at 912 S. Hill St. Unfortunately, the City Street Diectories for 1956 and 1960 (closest available) show no listings at all at that address. The first even-numbered listing is Gary's Tux Rental (sign partially visible in the photo) at 914. The building itself still stands as a parking garage with no occupants of the ground floor retail spaces.

Colorado Street Bridge - 1923
I found some old Pacific Electric employee magazines on The Internet Archive. Here's a picture of a nice bridge in Pasadena from 1923. The bridge is still there and looks to be in good condition although you probably can't walk across it any more.
https://i.imgur.com/rHhvj2W.jpg Source: https://archive.org/details/pe-mag-1...ct-10/mode/2up The magazine has this description: Cover Illustration This month's cover picture gives an interesting glimpse of the Colorado Street Bridge, which authorities has proclaimed as an epoch in bridge building, and in which both grace and stability are prominently embodied. This handsome structure completes the connecting link between Pasadena and Glendale and is the open highway to Flintridge and La Canada. From it a most inspiring view can be had of the Arroyo and surrounding territory and visitors to the Southland seldom fail to include it in their itinerary. The Colorado Street bridge is built of reinforced concrete and is 1468 feet in length. Its height is 144 feet and its greatest span measures 230 feet. It was built jointly by the City of Pasadena and Los Angeles County at a cost of $230,000. Here is a current Bing Maps oblique view: https://www.bing.com/maps?osid=f1186...=2&form=S00027 |
Fullerton - Gem City of the Southland
Also from the October 1923 PE employees' magazine at the Internet Archive is this montage of buildings in Fullerton:
https://i.imgur.com/m83dcXB.jpg Source: https://archive.org/details/pe-mag-1...ct-10/mode/2up I was able to find one survivor (there may be more).

I don't know if you can walk across it any more, or if it's even advisable, but they did film on the bridge in 2016 for a montage sequence in La La Land. https://www.seeing-stars.com/Locatio...nd/Bridge1.jpg Actually, the La La Land Locations website I got this photo from, HERE, indicates that one can indeed still walk across this bridge. |

Mount Lowe Funicular Incline - With Yuccas
The July 1928 Pacific Electric employee magazine had the cover photo below:
https://i.imgur.com/wujKuPi.jpg showing the company's funicular railway - part of the route up Mount Lowe. I don't think I would ride that attraction, although there must have been some sort of safety brakes - maybe something that clamped on a rail if the cable tension came off. Source: https://archive.org/details/pe-mag-1...age/2/mode/2up The magazine has the following write-up about the cover picture, focusing on the prominent yucca flower at left (and on the hillside below too?). YUCCA ON COVER PICTURE The Yucca, or “God's Candles,” as it is becoming familiarly known, is one of the outstanding wild flower growths peculiar to. California's hillsides, and thriving particularly well in the Southland. A beautiful species of this plant adorns a prominent foreground in this month's cover picture. The Yucca hears the largest cluster of flowers of any plant in the temperate zone, authorities tell us. The individual plant lives about twelve years, blooms once and dies. Frequently small plants come up from around the root, but most Yuccas originate from seeds produced by the huge blooms, After the blossoms wither, the seed is blown by the winds to nearby points where it takes root. So enthusiastic were campers and visitors to mountain retreats where this plant thrives that the plants were rapidly being exterminated by the large number of them that were cut. Consequently a law forbidding the cutting of them was placed in the statutes and the flower will be preserved as a natural beauty of our hillsides. Flower lovers are beginning to plant them in their home gardens, raising them from seed, and one of the beauty spots of Southern California which has attracted widespread attention is a whole hillside covered with Yuccas in the Forest Lawn Memorial Park. I seem to recall seeing a very similar image, without the yucca flower, but with the woman waving and the conductor with his hat on the middle platform. Maybe the yucca is "shopped in"? |

This thread is so informative and I thank all of you that contribute. You are a great mix of fantastic minds. It is nice to have this as a reference.

Hello, all!
This is my first post here, having found this forum a week or so ago while doing some research related to a Los Angeles address in the 1930s, and now that I've looked through (I think) every post from the beginning, hopefully I'll be able to contribute a bit eventually! My area of interest is race cars of the late 1920's through WWII, and Los Angeles was a hot bed of tracks, builders, and drivers through that era. I'll get back to that later, but for now, I wanted to take a stab at @ethereal_reality's recent posts. Quote:
This one looks to be 1109 W. Adams, and if the 1910 date is correct, it was at that time owned by one Spencer H Smith of Manhattan. There's a ton of info on the property, as well as a bunch of other Adams St properties, among others, here. Also at the above link is this bigfoot film footage-quality picture of the house, likely taken not long before its demolition based on the cars parked out front. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...5b90083c_o.png Historic Los Angeles Adams St Blog And here, from Historic Aerials, the 1921 Baist. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...26c2f37c_o.jpg Historic Aerials And the 1911 LA CD: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...16226a30_o.png LAPL Quote:
