Joshua Mark - You know you grew up on the Westside of L.A. if...........
Lincoln Blvd, 1973 (a contender for “The Ugliest Street in the World”). This view is taken from about Lincoln and Ozone in Santa Monica, looking South into Venice. The Safeway was at Lincoln and Rose. Note the giant ‘Tire Man’. The chicken shack in the foreground became a donut shop, and a friend and I worked there for a short while in the middle seventies, just after high school.
