City Hall and the City Hall Annex, left, later renamed James K. Hahn City Hall East, as seen from the Federal Building, on February 26, 1969. Los Angeles City hall is a Goodhue-esque structure with classical detailing at the base (Greek freize main entrance and Romanesque arcades) and a campanile-like tower influenced by Ziggurat construction, built from 1926-28, and first dedicated on April 27th of the same year. The concrete that the tower is made of was formed from sand taken from each of California's 50 counties and water from each of its 21 missions. It was the tallest building in Los Angeles until 1957 and remained the tallest building in California, at 28 stories tall (450 feet), for 7 more years. Associated architects were Austin, Parkinson, Parkinson and Martin.
