    I really enjoyed your video!!! You did a great job!!! When My wife and I got married in 1987, we stayed at The Breakers Hotel on our honeymoon!! It is an amazing building!! Are room alone was Hugh!! My wife Rose passed away in 2002. She always loved the old buildings in Long Beach. She thought they were so romantic.
    She was right.

    I did jury duty last year in Long Beach. We had an hour lunch so I walked down Ocean Blvd. and I walked into some of the old buildings. It's like I went back into time! The architectural of these old buildings is amazing! Some of these old buildings had photographs of The Long Beach Pike of long ago!

    Today there’s a little cafe called The Plunge in the approximate spot of the old Plunge. But a lot of ppl don’t know about it because it’s not a free standing building.it’s actually on the ground floor of a tall high tide condominium there on Ocean Blvd,facing the ocean. But anyone interested can just look up The Plunge

    Wow! I worked on the Breakers in 1990. Cool old building. A lot of art work on the ceilings where covered by the new ceilings during the remodel. I did the plumbing on that project.
    I was at the Scottish Rite Cathedral many years ago. I think it had been closed for sometime but opened that night for a Rave party. Sorry to say the place got trashed that night!

      Poly High School’s music department holds many school functions & performances in the Scottish Rite cathedral. It’s just as lovely as it’s supposed to be inside.

    For anyone interested there’s a Long Beach Historical Society on Atlantic in the Bixby Knolls neighborhood. It’s like a mini-museum.

    Alot of information I did not know! I never thought about the vast amounts of office buildings, banks etc. so spread out back then. We have gotten used to skyscrapers consistenting of more office space in the past 40 something years.

    Does anyone know anything about the Jergins Trust building that was located on Ocean and Pine?

      It has a tunnel under ocean Blvd. Closed currently but will be reopening when the building that's slated to be built there opens. It's part of the agreement with the city. Should be interesting. The tunnel was put their because of all the footraffic, vehicular traffic, and railroad, etc.. on ocean Blvd. It alleviated a little of the overcrowdedness on the street.

    Chuck do you still live in Long Beach or in California? If so, I'm working on a documentary that you might be interested in.
