I wonder how cool the original font looked before it was 'updated' with this new and improved fantastic signage?


the pool hut


No remaining tikis here, but still a well maintained classic example of SoCal Polynesian Pop apartment architecture.

Beautiful looking apartment complex with some great spindly palm trees. I'm guessing that maybe the metal pole holding up the pool a-frame once had a carved tiki "sleeve" like the one at the Hanakiki in Santa Ana. Thanks for hunting this one down. I always suspected there were Tiki apartments in Norwalk.

I drove past these apartments this morning and almost caused a crash...I didn't even know they were there! I was going to make a u-turn and go back to look, but I was on company time (like that ever stops me). Good to know they are still unchanged and operational.

I drove by the other day when headed back to work, which is up the street. I snapped these photos of the pool area.
