A stunning 130+ year-old landmark building in downtown LA featuring ornate iron railings, open elevators, and a soaring glass ceiling that floods the lobby with natural light. The building is famous for its appearances in Blade Runner and other films, and the architecture and details are genuinely impressive. The major caveat: public access is limited to the ground floor lobby only—you cannot explore the upper floors unless you work there, and photography is prohibited in some areas.
