There They Are Again...

Make sure when you are walking our neighborhood you look up. You may just catch a glimpse of our reverent red-tailed hawks.

Early Evening...

Shot from the Gaylord, here we have an early evening view, looking west down Wilshire Boulevard. Love that Shepard Fairey 'PEACE' mural peaking out on the side of the Line Hotel, at the corner of Wilshire & Normandie.

In the Movies...

The Gaylord made an appearance (on the left) in 1925's, 'The Red Kimona.' Starring Priscilla Bonner, the film tells the story of a woman who finds herself working as a prostitute in New Orleans and eventually winds up in Los Angeles. RACY! The production of this film was lead by a mostly all female team. You will notice the Talmadge (on the right) and that there is no Wilshire Christian Church in site yet, at the corner of Wilshire & Normandie (foreground, left), that would be constructed in 1926.

A big THANK YOU to Camille, up in Oregon, who spotted our Gaylord while watching the film and sent us this film still.

Our Winning Combination...

Our beautifully aged 'Gaylord' neon serves as the perfect perch for our neighborhood red-tailed hawk, after a storm. Imagine the stories both could tell...
