Description: Automobiles are parked in front of the meat market and Sheffield Farms grocery store at right on Cornaga Avenue in this view looking northwest over the Long Island Rail Road crossing. The street sign on the utility pole at right reads "McBride St." and, in smaller letters, "Hollywood Ave." See record eer-000034 for a view of the railroad crossing on McBride Street. The elevation of the railroad line eliminated the intersection of Cornaga Avenue with McBride Street, which now terminates at Beach Channel Drive.
