This large brick church was constructed in the late 1880s. After serving as Simpson Methodist Episcopal Church and Simpson Auditorium for years, it became the Third Church of Christ, Scientist in the early 1910s. The Christian Science Reading Room remains on the site, but the large church sanctuary was demolished after it suffered severe damage as a result of the 1971 San Fernando earthquake. Several cars are parked outside of the Third Church of Christ, Scientist, located at 734 S. Hope Street. The large church sanctuary, to the left of the Christian Science Reading Room, is shown being dismantled in preparation for its demolition. The receiving entrance of the Robinson's Department Store is visible on the left and a parking garage is present in the background.
