The Bradbury Building
The Bradbury building on Grand Central Square is one of the sights on the Inside Historic Downtown LA tour.
The Inside Historic Downtown Los Angeles live-audio tour offers a tour of the most interesting historic sites, including Warner Bros Theatre, Palace Theatre and the Edison Building. The Palace Theater, the oldest Orpheum Theater still standing, is one that you get an inside tour for and you will not be disappointed. You will see the architecture in downtown Los Angeles, one of the most authentic historic downtowns. It has been used for the backdrop in many turn-of-the-century films based in Chicago or New York. Old Vaudeville still lives in the theatres of Downtown LA, where stars like Judy Garland and WC Fields got their start. Come visit LA and see it in its historic glory.
Visit Historic Downtown LA and see the virtually unchanged 1920s Hollywood in the scenery and buildings. See the Palace Theater inside and out, as well as the Million Dollar Theatre, the first movie palace built by Sid Grauman who built the famous Chinese Theatre. Hotels, public buildings, and a European style food hall all make this a fantastic tour of Los Angeles.
