5700 block Los Angeles Street
This is on the odd-numbered side of the street. There are apparently only two lots that actually front on Los Angeles and have street numbers there. This mark is across from 5718 Los Angeles Street.
1916 – J. O. Adler
21 August 20111915 – J. O. Adler
20 August 2011
1031 Arlington Avenue
1914 – Sandin & Swanson
19 August 2011
1021 Arlington Avenue
Like yesterday’s 1913 mark, this Sandin & Swanson mark is unusual in having the year on the left. It’s unlike all other S&S marks that way, too. Odd. But now I have a full set from 1912 to 1918.
1913 – E. Nelson
18 August 2011
1029 Arlington Avenue
This is definitely not W. E. Nelson as there is no W. I’m assigning it to 1913 because I can’t see what else it could be.
1902 – The Oakland Paving Co.
17 August 2011
983 57th Street and 1045 57th Street
Notice that the top mark has backward Ns.
2011 – Andes
16 August 2011
59th Street at Genoa Street
There are a bunch of these in the area. It looks like Andes Construction Co. is really in the business of fixing old sewer lines, but they do the concrete afterward too. They’re in Oakland in a funky part of the Melrose neighborhood, doing well by all appearances.
1938 – Lovisone
15 August 2011
815 Arlington Avenue
With this mark I’ve documented Lovisone between 1928 and 1938.
