Bahia Motel Marquee
Pico Rivera, CA Photo by RoadsidePeek.com
The Bahia Motel in Pico Rivera was long a fixture for
having a great motel sign. Even as the businesses around began redeveloping,
the Bahia held steady with its large neon sign providing a glimpse of
what the roadside looked like decades back.
Well, the Bahia has just met the fate of many other roadside businesses
of yesteryear... the fate of meeting a bulldozer head-on. All that's left
now of the Bahia Motel and its marquee, like the old Ford plant, is a
memory and perhaps a place in Pico Rivera history books. 07-03
