EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant city of Los Angeles in the 1950s. The year is 1956, and we find ourselves standing on the Route 101 freeway, gazing at the iconic City Hall tower rising proudly against the downtown skyline. The image captures a moment in time when automobiles ruled the roads, as classic cars and trucks navigate through this bustling metropolis. The architecture of that era stands tall with its monochromatic beauty, showcasing a blend of modernity and history. As we take in this historical snapshot, we can almost feel the energy of daytime commute flowing through our veins. The sunken landscape adds depth to this urban scene while highlighting the vast transportation infrastructure that supports such a thriving city. Intriguingly, an ice plant can be spotted amidst all these architectural marvels - a reminder of how industries coexisted within this concrete jungle. Transport yourself back to an era where highways were still being paved and cities were rapidly evolving. This vintage photograph from Underwood Archives allows us to witness firsthand how Los Angeles transformed into what it is today – a symbol of progress and dreams realized.
