Simply Wholesome (near the airport - swing by enroute)

Don't forget the Jet Strip Motel next door.

Pann's is also near the airport.

Look for the 2 dramatic A-frames on LaCienega, directly east from Pann's

The Capitol Records building

StreamLine Moderne, but the Coca-Cola building:

Located Downtown, Central and approx 11th Street.
