I can see that, but I hope that most people would at least use the common sense to rent before buying in an area they aren't familiar with. And before you rent please visit! The internet is full of bias'. You can't believe what forum posters tell you, and you can't believe what realtors or apartment management companies are telling you. I've done the whole rent without seeing it first and let me tell ya, I learned my lesson quick! Ok ok we've gotten off topic, back to the pics!!!

Moderator Note: I decided to clean up this thread, and delete posts that didn't include photos. From now on, I will leave photo commentary for two or three weeks, and then those posts will be deleted. Anyone else have any more photos? |

I don't have anything that really compares, but this is 6th and Main in 1911, for what it's worth!

LOL, I did a double take when I saw this one. I live in the NYC metro area (in NJ) and this looks EXACTLY like a few areas of Manhattan. I've always wanted to visit LA, but after seeing these pictures now I REALLY want to go! |
