Exterior view of the Garnier Building on N. Los Angeles Street. A sign for the Chinese American Citizens Alliance hangs above the doorway. Beneath the sign is a banner advertising the group's 20th Biennial convention held on September 1949. The United States Courthouse is visible in the distance. The Garnier Building dates back to the original Chinatown in Los Angeles. It acted as an important community resource for Chinese Americans and housed many social and business groups, including the Chinese American Citizens Alliance. The alliance worked as advocates against discrimination and were active in registering Chinese American citizens to vote.
