View is looking northwest, photo possibly taken from City Hall toward three powerhouses: Hall of Records, County Courthouse, and Hall of Justice, which sit amid other equally important buildings in Downtown. An advertisement painted on the upper portion of a building (lower forefront) reads, "Los Angeles Daily Journal - official paper for City of and County of Los Angeles - Legal advertising". Allied Architects designed the Hall of Justice in 1922. Photo dated: March 26, 1927.
