What gets photographedPage One, the Camera and the Reader in Pico Rivera
Roughly 7 in 10 households here own, and many have held their homes for years. Few of those owners have seen a flue from the inside, so a camera report often serves as their first real look at what their chimney has been doing. The 1987 Whittier Narrows epicenter lay just north, and masonry here shook hard that morning. Summers run warm and dry, with morning clouds at times in late spring. On no-burn alert days, wood fires stay out while gas logs may keep running.
