These places are disappearing...many without any record that they ever existed. You are doing a great service in recording what might not be standing tomorrow. As to CA, well, I would really like to see a photographic record of all of the building that perished in the 1906 earthquake. But if you look there are still-standing buildings from the earliest settlement. I guess the point is that your backyard is my exotic place.
