does anyone have any information on this house?
I don't have any info on the house, but I do know the neighborhood. I realize that I drive by this intersection often. It's now of course the intersection of Cesar Chavez Ave. and Hill Place. I guess it's the western edge of modern-day Chinatown. Too bad the old house couldn't still be standing; there's a mortuary there now. But it looks like the old lamppost on Sunset from that earlier photo you posted is still there, with a modern-day cobrahead light instead of the old gumball lumiere.
