Congratulations to the commenters who quickly guessed yesterday's Cornerspotter, which as noted in the title is at the corner of Franklin Avenue and Bronson Avenue. The corner currently houses a Gelson's Supermarket, a variety of restaurants and shops, and the former Chateau Elysee, which you may know better as the Church of Scientology's Celebrity Centre. The inset image popped up on the Daily Mail as part of a series of photos showing Hollywood as it appeared around the early 20th century and as it appears today. Thanks for playing!
