Arrow Now hiring delivery drivers-Los Angeles Jun-July '08

Below is a little compilation of shots taken throughout the city taken throughout the course of the last month or so. I planned on doing alot more, but due to impatience and the realization that school/vacation will call for me to drastically scale down my plans. Oh well, at least I got Chinatown, Koreatown, Hollywood, Los Feliz, Wilshire Center, Pico-Robertson and some other places in here. Enjoy!!

Ya'll know the deal







yum yum-sushi and art deco, who would've thought ?


Uncle Jer's with the u/c Children's hospital in background.


Typical street in the Los Feliz Terraces/East Hollywood area of Los Angeles.


One of the many home variations of the Los Feliz Terraces/East Hollywood area of Los Angeles

Thanks for another great set, King.

My favorite shots were those of the Los Feliz neighborhoods.

I'm lovin' the photo thread... I swear looking at these I would have thought I was in Houston (until seeing the subway). It's really scary how similar the cities look.

There is no city in America like L.A.... it's crazy the amount of all-over diversity there is, especially in the built environment.

These are my favorite types of threads on SSP... random L.A. Pictures of typical neighborhoods and such, not the downtown areas.

Great thread.

BTW, I want the house on the right in this picture of yours.

I like how you inconspicuously captured the CBD cluster on the upper right side of the photo.

Your threads are an absolute blast to view!
