Farmer’s Market at the corner of Fairfax Ave and 3rd St, Los Angeles, circa 1960 (colorized)Although this circa 1960 photo has been colorized, so we don’t know for sure that those cars were actually those hues, it’s such a strikingly rendered image that I wanted to share it as I found it.

    What’s even more amazing (aside from this dreamscape image} is that the market survived at all – Remember 40 +/- years back glossy publicity push for new market, like the now defunct Westside Pavillion; completly enclosed with attached 300 room hotel. TG for successful community pushback. Also read Caruso’s adjacent shopping center actually “revived” market in bringing in new customers. One of a few times a “win-win” on all counts.
