As with many demolished houses in West Adams, there is a little bit left:
Google Street View
The Childs wall along Adams--it once had a corner entrance with steps (second Childs photo above),
almost identical to that which survives across Adams at the site of yet another demolished house on
the boulevard:

The corner lot in this shot is apparently now part of the property of the Fitzgerald house, seen at left.
The whole corner has been on the market for $1.9 million for several years. I haven't yet found out what
house once stood on the corner--whatever it was would have been better than an empty lot, of course,
but an empty lot would be preferable to what atrocity I fear may come.

Joughins were listed at 3101 W Adams Street in 1909, 1915 and 1923 but then not in the 1926 CD or after; other
family members built or moved to a house or were for some reason listed at 2320 West 25th Street, which backed
up to 3101 W. Adams (never have been sure why Adams is numbered differently from the street one block north).

2320 West 25th Street; the Auguste Marquis/Fisher & Sons funeral parlor (2302) is at left.

Top four photos in quote were via LAPL
