as of Mar 2018 and still LPS
Pacific Beach is just north of Mission Bay in San Diego, it's shown here to demonstrate there is still some cool old lighting still around, even though we're nowhere near LA. These pics are from Diamond St., at the Mission Blvd. end, but there are loads of these old lights and ploes left on quite a few streets off Mission in this area. Notice the modern AE LPS fixture in the first pic across the street, this is more representative of the lighting you'd find in this part of the world.
I think these are GE 101-D teardrops, looking at the ribbed reflector and the safety chain, and the shape of the head. They are LPS, as is most of the old lighting, having been originally incandescent and converted at some point. They are still series wired however.
