Aesthetic bygone vintage street lighting

Before L.A. became a living Hell

 

That's an L.A. I would have liked to have visited.

 

NW Lovejoy Ramp, Portland - 1938 - looking east toward Broadway Bridge

 

This 1920s “Detroit News” photo contains a “Motor City” Traffic Police officer in an elaborate elevated traffic control booth who apparently was using a megaphone to direct rush hour traffic at the intersection of Grand Blvd. and Woodward Ave. The Officer appears to be barking out commands to those below him on the street level.
