Just caught this interesting article about saving the replica of the Bulldog Cafe from destruction. It was saved by the owner of another programmatic structure previously discussed on Noirish LA, the Idle Hour Cafe. Too bad the original Bulldog is long gone but at least we'll still have this smaller replica to remember her by.
