I'm still looking for the cafe as well
t2. Thanks for pinpointing the building.
Here's another look....from a different angle.
back to the vintage
detail
I wonder what is across the street that's reflected in the cafe's window. It looks like a peaked building with a sign on top of the roof
(not unlike the small real estate offices that used to dot the landscape)
update:
It just occurred to me that Barney's Beanery is on the opposite of Santa Monica Blvd., but I'm pretty sure it's too far east to be reflected in the window.
I guess it would be possible, but I believe the angle of the windows are wrong.
It would only be possible if the 1947 Krisel photograph was taken on the side of the building that faces N. Alfred street. (to make the reflection feasible)
