The Biltmore Hotel is directly behind the trio.

That's quite a LARGE area to be designated "Keep Off The Grass".
If you look closely you can see the people coralled on the pathway.

Perhaps this is the street where the 'well-dressed people' parked and then walked to Pershing Square.
I'm pretty sure it's the street directly behind the Biltmore Hotel.
(I can't remember the street's name)
If that's correct, the building on the left is the Mayflower Hotel. (and
, of course
, that's the Los Angeles Library in the distance)
