Description
ANSWER: As many of you probably knew, the structure in the photo is the famous Little Brown Church in the Valley. Located at 4418 Coldwater Canyon Ave., North Hollywood, it was built alone by the Rev. John H. Wells, who is still its pastor. Its doors are never locked.
KNOW YOUR CITY, NO.239 -- Its name contains a color. And it was built with determined hands by one man. Also, it has the distinction of being open 24 hours a day. But it's no all-night café. Take a guess. If no luck, see Page 9, Part l.
