I wish I had a higher-resolution version of this great vintage image. Unfortunately, it's taken from a postcard I found. The building stands at the southwest corner of Wellworth Avenue and Westwood Boulevard. The pictures were taken from the northeast corner of the same intersection. As you can see, as far back as the 50s this building was marred by the billboard structure that still sits atop it. Note how at some point the basement level was remodeled into a parking entrance accessible from Wellworth. The building's ground floor was also subdivided into two businesses at some point - today they are a small restaurant called Danube and a Papa John's pizza storefront. Finally, the original plate-glass windows in front were all replaced at some point (perhaps after an earthquake) with the less-appealing versions that are present today.
