My photographs are missing due to a technical issue at imageshack. -sorry

One other thing that intrigued me about 118 Winston Street, was the ramp to the left of the building. I had to ask myself, where the heck does this lead to?

below: As far as I could tell, it led to the roof of the one-story building behind 118 Winston, but I wasn't sure.

I finally found some clarification in these scenes from 'Southland', season 2, episode 6.

For me, this the most intriguing screen-grab. What is that intriguing brick building across Indian Alley?

As far as I can tell, this is the back of the 700-seat Regent Theater (1926) that faces Main Street.
