The southwest courtyard with the colored arch (left) leading to the monumental pedestrian entrance
The colored arch is trimmed with mosaic tile, adding to the Spanish cum art deco flavor of this courtyard.

The stairs up to the colored arch and views of the upper walkways
Details of the southwest entrance There is a monumental stairway and ramp at this entrance (sorry, no photo of the whole). For a wonderful photograph of this entrance, see James Steel, Los Angeles Architecture: The Contemporary Condition (London: Phaidon Press, 1993), 170-71.
