Martin, I wasn't able to find any images that show the elusive light fixture....but I got a good look at the new entrance you mentioned.



LAPL 1946

I wonder who made the dubious decision to include the incongruous blue dome on the new entrance?


How do I know the dome is blue?

Martin, you said the light fixture might have been inside the new entrance..but the young lady is obviously standing outside....so I'm not sure what you meant.
