Introduction
The Los Angeles Times Building is a dual landmark of Los Angeles journalism and architecture, designed by Gordon Kaufmann in 1935 and long the headquarters of the Los Angeles Times. The building blends Art Deco and modernist elements, with a facade of vertical lines and shallow relief, topped by a clock tower and a world map relief symbolizing the paper's international reach. The lobby once displayed Pulitzer Prize photographs and historic front pages, a shrine for journalists. Although the Times moved to El Segundo, the building remains in office and commercial use and is a designated Los Angeles cultural historic monument. From the plaza one feels LA's weight as a Western media hub, an essential stop on a downtown historic tour.
