Thanks for locating that 1909 pano Sweet Los Angeles.

Flyingwedge reminded me that the building in the distance (with the green x) is the Westmoore Hotel at 7th and Francisco.
The church (blue x) is the First Baptist Church at 725 S. Flower.

1904

...also visible is the Martz Flats at 7th & Flower.


Here's the church around 1910 / originally posted by FlyingWedge

back to the top 1904 photo.
What do you guy think...are the two rounded objections chimneys? They seem to be in such an odd spot.
