Psychic or Psychics


The 1500-block of East Broadway is long and starts quietly at Woodland, at the west end, and ends busily at Commercial, to the east. Closer to Woodland (on the south side of the street) is a small apartment building likely built in the same decade as the Rio Theatre (est. 1938), which everyone knows is also on East Broadway, and a bank length from Commercial.

The apartment at 1530 East Broadway advertises the services of a "Chinese Male Psychic" and a "Lady Chinese Psychic". For the longest time I thought one was above the other; but it wasn't until I paid attention that I discovered there is no below, only a small pair of double-doors suited (sooted?) to prehistoric coal deliveries.

Safe to say that both services are available in the apartment above. Unsafe to assume that the "Male Psychic" does men only and the "Lady" the same, but for women.
