This subject is a landmark Italian Renaissance Revival building and was erected in 1897. You have seen it before, I'm willing to bet, a lot of things have been filmed there. The most famous is probably Blade Runner. Once again, this is something totally free that you can go and see and photograph. This is right smack in the heart of Los Angeles.
I only had my phone with me to take pictures with, but I had been wanting to take photos there for AGES, so I wasn't missing the opportunity. I think for phone pictures these are fine. And yes, there are filters on all of these to make them look older. I liked them better that way, and hey, my blog.

Light filtering down near a stairway. My favorite shot by a long margin.
