In this photo taken atop whatever building stood on the northeast corner of Virgil Ave and Wilshire Blvd in 1934, is looking west toward the Bullocks Wilshire department store. We can see a few of the large homes that used to line Wilshire in the early part of the 20th century but in the lower left we can see a building I’ve never noticed before. That scaffolding suggests it’s still being built, but that pyramidal turret makes it quite distinctive.
