The Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena, located at 3939 S. Figueroa Street, was officially opened on July 4, 1959 by then Vice President Richard M. Nixon and was designed by Welton Becket; general contractor was L.E. Dixon Company. The last event at the arena was a Bruce Springsteen concert. The arena was closed on March 19, 2016 and demolished to make room for a new soccer stadium. Photograph caption dated December 21, 1962 reads "L.A.'s Frank Arnett (4) battles for puck at arena. Seattle's Don Chiupka mixes in. Stan Maxwell (11) watches play." The Los Angeles Blades are playing the Seattle Totems at the Sports Arena. See image 00157762 for additional photo in this series.
