My mom used to work for Edwin Lester at the LA Civic Light Opera, so we went to many LACLO shows at the Auditorium in the early 1960s. (I particularly remember seeing 'Carousel' and 'Camelot' there.) Anyway, I remember that parking garage vividly, and it always looked to my little kid eyes like it must have been there forever. I had no idea before this that it was actually only a couple of years older than I was! What a surprise...
