Yes, it was a joke. I make them once in a while.

Once the theater opens, we can add it as a separste page. It looks like they are putting in a large glass facade. I was by there today.

Here is a 1944 street map. Stephenson is on the left, at E-40. It looks like Stephenson becomes Whittier Blvd. at some point:

Wallace Reid was a very popular silent film star who died shortly after the advent of talking pictures. It looks like his wife directed the Warner Baxter film.
