I've discovered that the forlorn 112-year-old house at 1575 West Adams was the babyhood home of prolific Hollywood composer Jerry Goldsmith, whose amazing oeuvre includes the music for 1974's Chinatown, for which he was famously given just 10 days to complete after a previous score was rejected.

I think it needs a plaque. (The house definitely has needs.)

A history of 1575 West Adams and more on Goldsmith's antecedents is here.
