Bullock's Wilshire department store being built, Wilshire Blvd, 1929

The Bullock’s Wilshire department store on Wilshire Blvd is such an iconic building that there is no shortage of photos of it. However this is the first photo I’ve come across of it being built. At this point, you can see the shape it’s going to take which must have made the passing heads in 1929 shake with wonder: “Who is going to come all the way down here to shop – it’s virtually no man’s land!”
