Downtown San Diego circa 1947
Looking
northeast from Horton Plaza. Two
streetcars wait to go west on Broadway as a Yellow Cab heads north on 4th. I think that is a
Trailways bus, or something like that -- not a city bus. At the
left is the U S Grant Hotel. I worked briefly in 1965-1966 at
Washburn & Justice Advertising Agency, on the second floor of the
Grant, behind the Palm tree. I could stand out on the balcony with
a cup of coffee and watch (and hear) the fellow who would Praise The
Lord at the top of his lungs.
