Temple Street, probably the grungiest Los Angeles surface street that cuts right through town, is a seldom mentioned cog in movie history.
Several film studios and production companies were in this neighborhood from the silent days of Mary Pickford to the midcentury with Robert Aldrich and through the 1970s with Adam-12.
Most of Temple runs parallel to the freeway so film fans usually miss it. The surrounding architecture is still largely from the early days of the movie business.
This building directly across from the Adam-12 police station has a mysterious vibe.

3333 W Temple Ave. A sordid little pocket right next to the freeway.
Western Exterminator Co. has a famous 1940s neon sign that shines and blinks all night long on the 101.
The Adam-12 headquarters was right down the street at 2710 Temple Ave.
