Well, it isn't Mel's TV anymore, but the building is still there. Only changes are that a copper roof facade has been installed, and the smaller sign over the door is gone. And new front doors. Otherwise, the building looks the same as in the vinatage photo! Even the Palos Verdes Rock planter is still there, which is amazing since that store (now a restaurant) is on a corner where cars likely have crashed up against it... I think that has happened, because the windows on the South wall are new along with the doors. The East windows look the same as the vintage photo.
I'd sure be curious if all those neon signs are STILL THERE under that new copper roof overhang
