There is also a listing for Tyre Brothers Glass located at 3008 S. San Pedro in a 1933 directory
oldstuff, just for fun I checked out an aerial of 3008 S. San Pedro.



As you can see, there are other interesting things in this aerial, like the diagonal slash of land at left, no doubt a remnant of the former railway line.

The rectangular pinkish building just above the diagonal line, is an attractive 1926 Water & Power building.
