Alameda Street, 1930

One of the best shots I've seen of Alameda Street in downtown Los Angeles.  

Alameda Street, 1930, looking south I presume.  Thanks again to Historic Los Angeles.  This is literally the shipping corridor from Long Beach to the valleys north and every town in between.  Dad used to take us to Alameda Street to pick up trees fresh off the trains, packed in ice, for Christmas.  And while waiting line or waiting for the men to wrap the tree or tag it, he loved going to the food truck and getting a coffee and hot-dog at 5:30am.
