Pershing Square, Los Angeles, California

Corner of Sixth and Hill

N 34 02.831 W 118 15.212

 

This is Pershing Square, with the Biltmore Hotel in the background.  The original photo was taken in 1931.   Pershing Square is mostly concrete now--doesn't look quite as nice as it did back in the day.

 

This 1940 view is looking north, with the Title Guarantee Building in the center of the photo.  This is about 90 degrees right of the photos above. Old photos courtesy of Photograph Collection/Los Angeles Public Library

Year photo was taken: 1937/1940
