Architectural style[edit]

Even though many sources describe the design as Gothic Revival, there are no Gothic features in the building - a defining feature of Gothic is pointed arches, but all the arches here are classical round ones. The building has a somewhat Gothic feel, with tall slightly inward leaning plain walls and sculpted angels, reminiscent of some early 20thC churches, but without the Gothic details, it cannot be described as Gothic Revival. The LA conservancy calls it Art Deco, which is perhaps closest, but really it’s eclectic, with classical elements, and stylised details, some a bit Mediterranean.
