Four separate stories in L.A. Evolves speak of the variety in Downtown’s historic core. The area’s ethnic diversity is represented by the figures in the panels on the lower left; architectural history is represented by the Stock Exchange, the Arcade Building, theaters and banks; economic history is represented by grape fields, citrus groves, oil wells, laboring men and the movies; and transportation history is represented by a line of cars, buses, horse-drawn wagons, a trolley and Angels Flight, the world’s shortest railway which transported passengers up and down Bunker Hill.
