A unique grouping of elements, sunshine, high-powered business, Hollywood glamour and more in LA makes for a rich and energetic architectural style. The former May Department Stores built in 1939, the facade is tiled with gold leaf mosaic, is now part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The birds just love resting on the ledges.

Amazing. Looks like it could have been built in 2012!
I know, it really does look very modern, I wish I had got off the tour bus for a better look but time was against me.
