I love that post, HossC, of the Los Angeles Orphan Asylum and the maps. Now I know exactly where this was.

LA Orphan Asylum, 1924.

Caption: "Probably the happiest family in the city this Christmas will be the Carl Johnsons, as Mrs. Johnson returns her daughters Yvonne and Monica to their home on December 9, 1950, after four years of life at the Los Angeles Orphanage. Both Mr. and Mrs. Johnson were hospitalized during that time with severe chest infections. Sister Serena waves goodbye". Photo dated 1950.
