It was a long time ago, around 1930, I was running a flower shop in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles. Three years later, for some reason or other, they returned to Japan, but when the three of them were still alive, ( I found information and books of the flower shop in my childhood ) and the address.
It was a pre-war address, "332 E. first street, Los Angeles Calif.
However, since it is an old address, I can only find "maybe here ?". Because when I did a GOOGLE search, it was in front of the Sakura Hotel.
The address of the flower shop was "under Ohayo Hotel" from there.
I am having a hard time finding out where the Ohayo Hotel was located and if it was possibly the predecessor of the Sakura Hotel.
I am planning to visit Los Angeles in the near future to see my grandmother's roots, which were Japanese-American. ( I'm not sure if it's inside Skid Row, but )

Perhaps there is a 90+ year old person who has lived in Little Tokyo since childhood, and if memory serves, there may be a chance.
If anyone has any information, please let us know.
By the way, the name of the flower shop my grandfather owned at that time was Tei ( MIKADO )

The Toyo Miyatake Photo Studio was also located in Little Tokyo at that time. If you inquire, you may be able to find some photos from that time or someone who knew him.

Better yet, go to Koyasan by that address ? If you were a florist, you must have had a deep relationship with him.

Contacting Rafu Shimpo would be impossible without records ?.
