About This Tour
Nothing evokes Jazz Age elegance like Art Deco. Learn how it made its way to L.A., why it became such a defining architectural style, and about the craftspeople who created these soaring structures and their iconic details. Clean lines and geometric patterns proved a perfect style for L.A. in the ‘20s and ‘30s, and an extraordinary collection of these masterpieces still stands in the heart of the city.
You’ll step inside the entryway to the Cicada Club or the jaw-dropping lobby of CalEdison to experience first-hand the glamour of Old Hollywood on a walking tour that highlights the best that downtown has to offer.
