Reinhard, I'm not sure how to use google or bing to get to street view, but you don't need to lose LAJ or Los Angeles or Vernon in order to use the brick buildings. Here are a couple of links to locations with brick buildings in Vernon or just outside of Vernon.
Here is the Santa Fe Ave off ramp from the I-10 freeway at 8th Street.

I put in a long response with a lot of links to google maps on Sattelite only to have google default to a useless view of Oklahoma. The only maop that came out is Bing, so I'm trying again.

Notice the brick building with the parking lot on the roof. This is just a bit South on Santa Fe from the previous view.
This view is farther South along Santa Fe and shows a mix of brick and tilt up.

Moving farther south still on Santa Fe, we are now in Vernon. Most of the buildings in this view are brick.

Here we have moved East of our previous loctaion. Most of the buildings here are brick. The black lines that look like curved roads from this view are LAJ tracks.

Here is the last view East of the previous view. You can see the LAJ tracks behind the buildings between streets. Most of these buildings are brick, but any have been painted rather than the brick being left in the natural weathered state.
