Help me in figuring out where the cinematographer was (what street) when he took this reel.

Here is a longer version of the video which starts at Alameda and Macy. The camera then travels down a construction zone on Macy Street.

I posted a picture of the building with the "Lumber" sign at the beginning of the video along with a map in the old thread - see here. I'm pretty sure we saw the video above in the old thread, but I'm not sure if it was colorized.

BTW. A A Jowdy's grocers, seen in e_r's screengrab above, was at 506 Macy Street.
