Corner view of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce Building, located on the southeast corner of Broadway and 4th Street. A few people can be seen standing at the corner, possibly waiting to cross the street. This three-story building, erected by George Mason in 1894, was designed especially for the Chamber's use, and served as its home for twelve years. The Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce's first meetings were held in the old board of trade building on First and Broadway, which has since been torn down. In 1890, the Chamber moved into the Mott Building at 131 S. Main Street, where it stayed for four years. In 1894, the organization moved to new quarters at the southeast corner of Broadway and 4th, in a building designed especially for its use, the then-new three-story Mason Building - which would serve as the L.A. Chamber of Commerce for twelve years. In 1906, it moved into the Southwest Building, located at 130 S. Broadway, and stayed there until January 31, 1925.
