I am very lucky that my architect grandfather, Dr. Kurt Meyer Radon, was best friends with Jock Peters, who designed the wonderful interiors. Our families stayed friends for 3 generations. You should treat yourselves to a wonderful book on Peters, "Jock Peters, The Varieties of Modernism". The author, Christopher Long, who teaches at the University of Texas, Austin, had access to the family papers. Jock died young, but his style lives on in this beautiful building.

I was lucky to visit this incredible store when it was still Bullocks, similarly their Pasadena Store. Last days of the great U.S. Department Stores.

My grandma lived across the street from bullocks since 1987 as a kid I would ask my parents to take pics of me next to the building I was obsessed

I loved bullocks until Macys took over. They did the same to Marshall Fields in Chicago and Wanamakers in Philadelphia

Wilshire Boulevard MacArthur Park area was considered the Park Ave., of West Coast California unfortunately the area is a dump crawling with homeless and crime. it was home to the old beautiful Art Deco Richfield building along with the ambassador Coconut Grove hotel, among other high-end department stores like I.
