Description
Photograph of an aerial view of Los Angeles, showing the public library and bible institute, May, 1933. Large buildings in the foreground on the right shade the thin streets which connect them. Included in these massive buildings is the Los Angeles Public Library which has a thick clock tower protruding from its top and a wide staircase leading from the street to its large entrance. Just to the right of the library stands the Bible Institute with two tall portions on either side and a short wall in front. Smaller buildings blanket the city on the left and into the distance with the exception of two towers which stand above them in the background.
