The Richfield Building with it's 146-foot tower in 1955
^^^
I sure miss this building. Pic posted by ethereal_reality on first page of his blog, 2009.
Today this building would be preserved. The ARCO Plaza could have been built around it, but in 1968/69 it's value was not appreciated.
Everybody should go back to the first pages of this blog (2009) and enjoy all the pics. Start with page 1, and work forward 5 pages a day. I didn't find this blog until a year ago, so I have a lot of catching up to do.
