Description
Photograph of two architectural models of the new Los Angeles County Court House and Los Angeles Civic Center. "Modeling -- Directly above is a model of the new $17,500,000 County Courthouse, plans for which won approval after lengthy debate yesterday by the County Supervisors. Arrow locates the structure as it would appear in the Civic Center. Work is slated to start on July 15. Bids are due to be called for on May 15. A last-minute plea for a wider cross corridor nearly stalled action. (Story, P. 2.)" -- Examiner clipping attached to verso, dated, "May 4, 1955".
