LOS ANGELES CITY HALL
The architects may not have had it in mind, but L.A.'s City Hall is famed as a co-star in the classic tv series Dragnet and Adam-12. The mayor's office and the L.A. City Council's meeting chambers are located in this center for the government of the City of L.A. Completed in 1928, there are 32 floors with a public observation level on the 27th floor. The concrete in its tower was made with sand from each of California's 58 counties. In 1976 the site was designated an Historic-Cultural Monument.
Planning & Land Use Committee
The Planning & Land Use Committee focuses on the broad variety of planning issues arising
out of the dramatic redevelopment of Downtown LA. The Committee facilitates and provides a
forum for public discussion and input on individual projects and general policy decisions re-
shaping Downtown's landscape. Our goal is to encourage innovative and responsible land use
planning that improves Downtown for all current and future stakeholders, including residents,
businesses, workers, and the City as a whole. We recognize that the redevelopment of
Downtown has both social and economic impacts, and that the on-going transformation of our
metropolis is occurring against the background of cultural and historic resources that must be
preserved. Our guiding principles encourage excellent architecture and design that is
sustainable, transit-oriented, pedestrian-friendly, and compatible with existing and developing
uses in the many neighborhoods that make up Downtown.
