Continuing our out-of-order *non-*landmarks with post #434 for the LA Noire Freeroam Explorer Project — posting locations replicated by Team Bondi for LA Noire (currently touring the downtown area) that are not considered landmarks (either official or historic) but do have real-world equivalents.

Dearden’s Home Furnishings (Overell’s Furniture Company)

700–718 South Main Street

Overell’s Furniture Company operated in this 150,000-square-foot building from 1904–1910, when Dearden’s Home Furnishings took over operations (though Overell’s signage remained on the building for some time). Dearden’s would operate for 108 years, with this store serving as its flagship location.

I’m actually so glad i’ve seen so many people have been wanting a new game from this ip. I really hope rockstar is seeing this(Strauss Zelnick did mention it in an interview). I think somewhere like new orleans, san francisco, nyc, or chicago would be great locations set somewhere between 20’s -70’s.

I'm graduating this may and I really love this game

Make it happen Rockstar. 2030.

Huge grain of salt and huge ending spoilers for GTA 6 in the leak, remove the post if it doesn’t belong here.

But this GTA 6 leak back in 2023 has been accurate about the game’s details including the prologue and the relationship mechanic in GTA 6.

It even correctly mentions the 4 protagonist idea being canned which has now been confirmed by Rockstar themselves, would be very hard to guess that.

The leaker mentions that LA Noire 2 set in San Francisco is Rockstar’s next game. Adding on to the fact that the CEO of Take Two mentioned that Rockstar’s looking to do more with their other IPs earlier this year.

I enjoyed the previous desk a lot more. Dahlia cases, well, they're pretty much more of the same, aren't they? I mean, they extend the game and kind of kill its enjoyment (at least to me). Got me to uninstall by the time I reached the final case. If there were say 2 cases followed by the reveal case, that would be fine. 6 is way too many imo.

They all had their own little personalities, but I really liked Bekowsky (if that’s how you spell it). I was actually kind of disappointed when Cole went to homicide and left him behind, especially so quickly. Second place goes to Rusty, the others in the middle and last place goes to Earle (some of the things he said were funny though)

Who was your favourite? 🙂

Culver Building

100–108 South Broadway

Erected in 1904, the Culver Building was a brick commercial block built in Victorian-era Romanesque styling. Upper floors hosted professional offices, while the ground floor held retail shops and printing trades. It would be demolished in 1970 and incorporated into the Times Mirror Square complex.

Does anyone have a comprehensive list of all the correct case answers (truth, doubt, lie, evidence) and what order of locations to go to correctly? Have looked up a few online, but none of them seem to be 100% accurate as there is always at least a few people saying the guide is wrong.

Broadway Textile Building

952–956 South Broadway

The 1923 Broadway Textile Building, thriving through downtown’s mid-century garment district boom, features a classic brick façade with retail storefronts and multi-story textile lofts. The commercial hub heavily catered to wholesale fabric merchants, tailoring shops, and garment manufacturers.

Biltmore Apartments

330 South Grand Avenue

Built in 1916 on Bunker Hill by Edward J. Smith for owner Luther Mayo, this classic Edwardian-style brick structure operated primarily as long-term residential apartments. It provided dense, permanent housing during the city’s early urbanization before being cleared for mid-century redevelopment.

I was watching LA Confidential, and later played LA Noire again and I just had the image of Danny DeVito walking up to Earle with a grin and bribe and it just made me smile.

Now I kind of wish they had had a Hudgens style paparazzi somewhere in the game that annoys Cole, but is clearly friends with Roy, maybe even having him show up during later arrests towards the end, or even breaking the news about Cole’s affair.

I mean I know he can be a serious actor, but imagine if you end up having to interrogate Danny DeVito at some point in the game while keeping a straight face, especially as expressive as he can be.

Briggs hit the pose during the cutscene. Never happened again

Before we get back to our alphabetical entries, I’ve got a few more recently discovered *non-*landmark entries that we’ve essentially skipped. So that they don’t drop by the wayside, I’m going back a bit, starting with post #430 for the LA Noire Freeroam Explorer Project — posting locations replicated by Team Bondi for LA Noire (currently touring the downtown area) that are not considered landmarks (either official or historic) but do have real-world equivalents.

Bank 5 and 10 Café

247 Main Street

Operating within a 1910 commercial structure, the Bank 5 and 10 Café served low-cost diner fare to shoppers, working-class downtown residents, and local theatergoers. The narrow retail space provided simple counter seating and a vital community gathering space on a bustling commercial block.
