Do you recognize these homes? (I found this earlier today on ebay)

That's the Lucien Brunswig house in front, 3528 West Adams Blvd--we've seen the Brunswig Drug Co buildings here a number of times before, down by the Plaza. 3528 is gone...
Next to it is the Secondo Guasti house at 3500 West Adams--later Busby Berkeley's. Still standing.
The next house to the east is 3424, built by Lycurgus Lindsay--also still standing:
