Sunset Strip looking east, West Hollywood, circa mid 1950sJudging by that rag-top Volkswagen bug, this shot of the Sunset Strip was taken circa mid 1950s. Obviously traffic was still light enough to not cause road rage and parking was a breeze. Heaven! What struck me about this photo is that without the center divider running down the middle, the Strip looks so wide. It has four lanes plus a turning lane but in this vintage photo, it looks even wide than that!

The same view in June 2018:
