I hope this romance has lasted.

92nd Avenue at Sunnyside Street
This is a street corner with a 1940 WPA stamp on it, plus this signature. It’s the first example I’ve found of someone putting his name (intials, anyway) on a WPA project. (I tried to get both parts on one shot, hence the odd angle.)
1938 – C. Valenzuela
3 August 2015
1823 92nd Avenue
This is not only a better strike, but an earlier strike from this founding year of Carlos Valenzuela’s career. Another thing about this driveway site is that he put his mark on the corners of the driveway as well as at the mouth.
1931 – J. E. McCaffrey

1742 92nd Avenue
1921 – M. P. Amaral
1 August 2015
9000 block Plymouth Street
There’s a chance that this is 1926, like previous examples I’ve found.
1914 – Hutchinson Co.

Cherry Street at 92nd Avenue
Each corner of 92nd between Bancroft and International has this mark.
1992 – H. W.

1501 90th Avenue
Most of the pavement in front of the Elmhurst Baptist Church is not marked, but this patch is.
