The Aviation name comes from a local major street - Aviation Boulevard - which in turn refers to what is today Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Back in the day when they were naming streets what is today LAX was then a modest sized aerodrome called Mines Field. A number of roads in the area have names associated with aeroplanes & flying.

On this street map of the city of Manhattan Beach Aviation Boulevard can be seen forming the city's eastern boundary. Just a handful of km's to the NE is located Mines Field, er, I mean LAX.

Very cool!
It looks like a big Chase Bank building and downtown Denver swallowed up that old bike shop.

Only decal remaining on frame of 1967 CCM Centennial Duomatic. Wondering if the winged wheel may be a design borrowed from something else (i.e. like the Redwings) and when it was first seen prior to 1967 if so?

Nice!
It looks like the original building is still there.
