The former Ray Vines Chrysler-Plymouth-Imperial Dealership, one of the last remaining examples of Googie architecture in Long Beach.
Constructed in 1963, for automobile dealer Ray Vines. I am not sure who the architect was, the permit states that it was designed by architecture firm John Case and Associates. However, I have read that it was designed by Paul B. Clayton, who designed a number of mid-century buildings, including the beloved, Johnnie's Broiler. I'll try and keep looking for architect information.
Located at 4201 E. Willow Street, Long Beach.
This building is currently for sale- let's hope the City has no plans to demolish this gem.
