About this place
A destination bookstore inside a historic downtown bank building, known for used books, vinyl, art spaces, and theatrical browsing rooms. It is one of the rare LA bookstores that visitors seek out as a landmark in itself.
Trivia
Its upstairs book tunnel and gallery rooms have made it one of Los Angeles’s most photographed literary interiors.
Visiting tips
Go early or on a weekday if you want clean photos of the installations; combine it with the Bradbury Building, Grand Central Market, or other Historic Core stops.
