The Broadway Hollywood - Sunset Blvd
This picture was taken in the 50's at the corner on 1645 Vine street. The Broadway building is still there but not for long. View full size.
The Broadway Hollywood
The Broadway building is still there. It was successfully converted to condos. It's just about everything on the east side of Vine Street that fell to the wrecking ball. The Taft Building remains, as does the facade of Bernard Luggage, but everything else, from Hollywood Boulevard to Selma and from Vine to Argyle is the new W Hotel and condos. While I'm happy that some of Hollywood's history has been saved, I'm afraid it will soon become a bland shadow of its former self.
The attached photo was taken on 1/22/10. The view is looking north from Selma. The other is the facadectomy of Bernard Luggage.
Of Course
Of course those clear instructions could have a little to do with the receptacle's passing resemblance to a mail box.
Clear instructions.
The garbage can at right tells people exactly what it is for. Maybe this is why people today have so much trouble using one.
