The main changes are to the tower (I much preferred the original) and the portion that comes out on the right, which no longer has an entrance. The chapel is on the right in the back, facing south from the rest of the building.
In spite of the heavy remodels, the chapel still has a nice appearance.
My father joined the CoJCoLDS (sheesh--"Mormon" was SO much simpler) about 1935 and told us he attended the Belvedere Ward (he was from East L.A.). He and our family eventually settled in Hemet but to my knowledge we never saw the building where he began his Church membership. Thank you for posting these pictures, especially the upper one.
