Thursday, December 13, 2007 – Theatrical Excess

The Loyola Theater, 1946, Clarence J. Smale -

8610 South Sepulveda Boulevard at Manchester, in Westchester, just north of LAX

 

Post World War II Streamline Moderne curving into quite theatrical Hollywood Regency.

In 1946 it looked like this.  It doesn't look like that any longer; it now houses medical offices.

 

It is Los Angeles Historic Cultural Monument number 259.
