Glendale’s older west side still has copper in the walls

North and west Glendale include neighborhoods old enough for copper repipes and steel window walls that are finally coming out. Sports and entertainment construction nearby is a different ticket: temporary rail, aluminum, and demo on a schedule tied to an event calendar.

Luke’s orbit and the industrial bays add shop scrap — not a reason to call a household water heater “plant steel.” Photos settle that argument before a truck is assigned.
