Paradise Island Apartments

12/30/2001 - Paradise Island
5430 Rosemead Boulevard • Pico Rivera, California

I nearly locked the brakes on my poor car when I spotted this amazing tiki apartment building on Rosemead boulevard. I quickly pulled onto a side street and parked to take some photos.

Unfortunately, the place has seen better days; there are two tikis at the base of the apartment buildings' sign, but they're falling apart; smog and 40 or 50 years of Los Angeles summers (not to mention 40 or 50 years' worth of kids) have done a number on the wood, and whole chunks of the sculptures are missing around the mouths; you can see the sign pole behind. It must have been quite a place in its heyday.
