Description

Catalog published in conjunction with a photo exhibit at the Los Angeles Central Library's History and Genealogy Department, on display July 13, 2017 to January 14, 2018. Catalog updated in 2020. From famous icons to hidden gems, Los Angeles has amazing architecture as diverse as the city itself. But L.A.'s long tradition of reinvention has left beloved landmarks in its wake. This book highlights just a few of the many great buildings that fell to the wrecking ball, as well as some that narrowly escaped. The landmarks we almost lost might surprise you, and their survival offers hope for a future that celebrates our past.
