alvarado street


A quick grab of some buildings on Alvarado Street - they seem to have a kind of educational theme (at least on the left), but most of the building and lot here seemed to be given up to a huge swap meet site). I can never go down Alvarado Street without having Warren Zevon's "Carmelita" ear worming me ("He hangs out down on Alvarado Street / By the Pioneer Chicken stand").  I'm not sure where the dealers hang out now - Pioneer Chicken, which in any case was just off Alvarado on West Temple Street, closed, apparently, in March 2009, little lamented apart from its sign ...
