Description
Title supplied by cataloger.
Designed by Honnold & Rex, this 4,000 sq. ft. branch, located at 1403 N.Gardner Street, was constructed of brick and stucco with a steel and wood roof. In 1987, the branch was renamed the Will and Ariel Durant Branch of the Los Angeles Public Library, and in 2005 a new branch on Sunset Boulevard replaced this structure.
