The Marquee of the Million Dollar Theater
307 S. Broadway
Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California
On my way to my favorite camera repair shop I drive down Broadway. I got this shot while stopped very briefly at a red light.
This section of town has many great old buildings including the historic Million Dollar Theater. It has been restored and shows many old films and Spanish language theatre.
I need to come back to this area to take pictures. The art deco buildings, shops, and people make this a target rich environment for photography.

A small Chevrolet Van features interesting graphics (sign). The slight damage on the front quarter panel: who was at fault? Did they sue?
Note: My IPhone 16 Pro shot this at 1/9900th of a second!

According to my analysis of Sanborn fire insurance maps of Hazleton, the building was probably erected sometime between 1905 and 1909.
My favorite things to buy at Melvin Grocery are jugos naturales y verde, sandwich, pagos de billes, and envios. My favorite things to buy at Closet Multiservice are Pennsylvania license plates, cell phones, and taxprep.

I just had to buy this basic book of Spanish grammar. Conjugating the verbs are the worst thing - so many endings.
Nicholas Priester was an insufferable self-aggrandizer obviously: Can you imagine naming a building after yourself, what an asshole.
But now at last the Renaissance could stop reviving: It had fully revived.

The sign is dated 5/24/07, signed "By Abner M. CHORRO-" I think? I am not sure about CHORRO because the first two letters are faded.

Churros are the Spanish equivalent of American donuts or German Krapfen. They are a type of pastry, made from donut mix, deep fried in hot oil and sprinkled with sugar and are a treat not to be missed.
Los Churros son el equivalente espaƱol a los Donuts estadounidenses o los Krapfen de alemania. Un tipo de pastas , preparadas de una masa de buƱuelos, frita en aceite caliente y luego con un espolvoreado de azĆŗcar. Sin duda, una delicia que no podĆ©is perderos.

What a great night at the Free Library of Philadelphia! Isabel Allende presented her latest book: Mayaās Notebook at the Montgomery Auditorium of the Parkway Central Library on Sunday, April 28th, 2013. In the up-and-close conversation, Allende touched on several topics from world-wide authors, books, family traditions and politics making the audience eager to know her deeply.
In this informal conversation, Allende mentioned that as an author, she must feel connected not only with the personages that are being develop in the storytelling, but also with the events -- geographical and cultural componentsāthat are occurring in the narrative. In addition, the author states that she never writes a story for an intended target audience. For instance, Mayaās Notebook was never written for a young adult group of readers.
Finally, Allende believes that women around the world, when confronted with life difficulties are stronger in spirit. The challenges that women face everyday help each one of them to become a great leader. This was a great conversation!!!

Coming home late last night, I passed this handwritten poster, which had been taped over an ad for an upcoming film. Translation: "The United States assassinated 24 civilians in Haditha, Iraq. Who is the real terrorist?"
This is the first time in my long years in this neighborhood that I've seen such direct criticism of US foreign policy done by a local resident. (i.e.: Not a printed poster or sticker.) Aside from the political message, I like the flash-free city lights in this late-night shot, the lights in the windows and the car's tail-lights as it crosses the street... Not too many folks on foot at this hour!
Needless to say, this did not remain posted for long. In early June 2010, I noticed that even the phone booth had been removed. That's progress, I guess...
