My eyes are playing tricks on me again. I didn't notice the first one was on Calle de los Negros, I mistakenly thought it was in front of the Lugo adobe. But now I see the mast clearly on this side of Ferguson Alley. As for the second one, again my eyes, I mistakenly thought it was right in front of the Lugo Adobe, see the gables(?). Wrong, and wrong. But there is simply no way they put two of the first streetlights this close together. I have to believe these came somewhat later. I've gone through the DWP archive again this afternoon and can't find anything even remotely like these masts.
