Description
Photograph of panoramic view of downtown Los Angeles, showing City Hall in background, ca.1945. In the foreground at left, a small parking lot lined with automobiles can be seen. To the right, a wide road can be seen. Several large buildings are visible in the background. At center, a building labeled "Sunkist" is visible, while the "Engstrum Apartments" can be seen at right. Further to the right, an American flag on a large flagpole can be seen atop a large rectangular structure. In the background at center, a cylindrical construction which appears to be a large gas holder (aka "gasometer") rises above the other structures. In the far background at left, City Hall stands high above its surrounding structures.
