Whittier railroad bridge 1853a

Driving along Whittier Blvd in Whittier, you come across this rather surprising railroad bridge. The bridge is surprising because it looks out of place in what is a residential area on the edge of central Whittier.

The bridge is on an abandoned section of railroad that was Union Pacific but has now been converted into a bike path. There are actually three bridges in this section, two original and one a replacement due to seismic concerns.

In this picture are three wind mobiles near the main bridge.

This is the bridge that was replaced. The "Salt Lake route" refers to this line having been originally part of the transcontinential line that went through Salt Lake City.

West Hollywood Warner Studios (2414)

Photo from a series of photos of Warner Studios, now known as "The Lot". Though not particularly impressive as architecture, the studios have been active since the 1920's and many famous movies have been made there. Many of the buildings are soon to be demolished to make way for an office tower, thus the reason for documenting these historic structures.

In an juxtaposition, the sidwalks around Warner Studios were constructed by Griffith Company in 1927. Why this is odd is that D.W. Griffith was a famous director from the times when the studios at this location were first forming. A little search on the web though, finds a different Griffith Company that has been a major construction firm in LA since 1906 and apparently isn't related to DW Griffith.

Looking in the east gate. One of the more fascinating things about living in LA is the reminder of how much the movie industry is exactly that, an industry -- so much of the studios look like factory buildings.
