Roll Call Adam-12 Patrol Laurel Canyon at Chandler ACT ONE

Mac's Crazy Mixed Up Los Angeles Directions are my favorite part of this episode, but it also shows a lot of North Hollywood+ businesses in 1974. 


This is the season 7 episode # 4 "ROLL CALL" and I have had to break it into two acts. This is ACT ONE. 



This is a long post with some places still in business and other sites demolished and Monster Boxed. Let's patrol!



Atco Transmission North Hollywood as seen on Adam-12

Their blog should say "As seen on Adam-12," but it doesn't.
When in North Hollywood Valley Village,

That classical looking building on the street just north of them is a famous synagogue, the David Familian Chapel




Update! This was called Piece of Pizza








Update: Red Lantern Inn


Italian restaurant on Laurel Canyon at Chandler Adam-12 North Hollywood





Not seen in this episode, though they drive by it -- saving for future reference!








Lankershim must also be patrolled! 



This 1931 castle building is just north of the 134 on Lankershim. Not in Adam-12, but really great building on the way to their destination, looking for Officer Woods.


South on Lankershim, past Moorpark and St. Charles Borromeo church,  make a left on Bloomfield. A LOT of damage has been done here.  They visit this location three times (not twice) in this episode.



Later Reed comes right back to deliver a pizza (jumping ahead in the story here for photo comparison):

St Charles Borromeo Catholic Church on Adam-12












This sprang up long after Adam-12, but it's also on Ventura Blvd in Studio City, and it would definitely get your attention if TV show characters drove past it:





The Queen Mary drag club Studio City on Adam-12

Adam-12 pass the Queen Mary drag club on Ventura Blvd in Studio City 1974


Next up: one of those Adam-12 wormholes opens and sends Reed and Malloy to Victory Blvd. near Lankershim a few miles northeast of where they are here.


Seems like a good point to switch to 

ROLL CALL ACT TWO
