I am glad to see that the building is still there.

Looks like the same fire hydrant, too. Reassuring to see that some things haven’t changed much after more than three-quarters of a century…especially in LA.

Nice photos. Thanks for sharing your treasures.

Now that is too cool!
And kudos for getting the exact same perspective — that’s always been one of my pet peeves with the “Hollywood Then and Now” book. I love being able to compare then and now directly.
I am so loving the Christmas tree on the lampost, too!

That buidling was used for the Zimm Films location in ‘Get Shorty’.
