Department of Water and Power Building( File photo )
The Department of Water and Power's John Ferraro Building opened in 1961. It crowns downtown L.A. alongside the Los Angeles Music Center, both of which stand on what was once a Victorian-studded neighborhood on Bunker Hill. The '60s were characterized by such massive renewal efforts. Nearly 50 years on, some victors in this tussle are now themselves in danger of tear-down.
