I'm planning an L.A. tiki architecture photo safari. However, my "pre-flight research" turned up leads on some places that may or may not still exist.

I'm not asking anyone to do research here -- I'm just hoping someone might know the current status (demolished? de-tikified?) of some of these places. (Addresses or cross-streets would be helpful too.)...

Don the Beachcomber sign, 1727 N. McCadden Pl., Hollywood

Thanks for any light you can shed!

For those interested in still seeing this particular site, I'm sorry to say that the sign is now gone. The Missus and I went up to see it just yesterday. Based on the photo from Beachbum Berry's book Sippin Safari, I knew I was in the right place (I could see the planter box and the Burger King)-- but there was no sign! It's gone!
What with the final destruction of the International Marketplace in Honolulu, are there any artifacts left from Don's?
