Description
Photograph of a close-up of the parabolic arches at the Los Angeles International Airport, in November 1961. The arches sweep over a large circular structure at center, and a round area lined with windows sprouts from an unseen base. Around the airport area is a parking lot lined with a wire fence, in which several automobiles park. A group of palm trees sit left of center, and sprinklings of foliage line the building. A tall post with eight street lamp heads on it is situated to the left. The background is neutral.
