Looking west down Hollywood Blvd from Argyle Ave. 1937

Looking west down Hollywood Blvd from Argyle Ave. 1937A 1937 view looking west down Hollywood Blvd. from Argyle Ave. On the left we can see a Dodge Plymouth car dealership, and past that, the Taft building on the corner of Vine. Over the years the Taft building has provided offices for Charlie Chaplin, Will Rogers and, from 1935 to 1945, it was home to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. We can also see the streetcar that ran the length of Hollywood Boulevard. Clang! Clang! Clang!

    There’s a Cafeteria blade sign on the restaurant section of the Pantages building where the Effie Dean Cafe had been intially advertised during the opening year of 1930.
