In the interest of traffic safety, the State has completely changed the intersection of 41 and 46, though there is a plaque commemorating his death about a quarter mile west.

James Dean's last words to his buddy Rolf Wutherich: "He'll see us."
"He'll see us" was Donald Turnipseed driving his 1950 Ford. He never saw Dean's Porsche.

Australia?
Seriously, it's the Bradley Building in Horton Plaza in San Diego (but it's still upside-down).

Well, Amgen tour started yesterday in San Diego.
Could they be pedaling along on 28th St at Marcy Ave, perchance, with the Scholars & Athletes Prep School in the background?

Located under an interchange between I-5 and the Coronado Bridge approach, that's colorful Chicano Park.
