Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Pink and yellow light bulbs chase one another brightly across the underside of the theater’s orange neon marquee as I stand beneath it in 2013. Standing on the west side of Figueroa Street, across from the structure that housed Ford’s newly consolidated company called “Flagship," I glimpsed two figures sparring on the other side of a large front window.[i] In addition to the former Kim Sing Theatre at 722 N. Figueroa, Ford’s mixed-use compound now also includes a gym called Strong Sports, a strange and somewhat unsettling backdrop to contemplate events that took place at this exact location in June of 1943.
