Architectural photograph of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power building showing its distinctive brutalist design. The horizontal floor plates create a dramatic pattern of light and shadow against the clear blue sky. The concrete structure emphasizes horizontal lines. Below, xeriscaped landscaping with desert plants creates a water-wise garden. Mountains are faintly visible in the distance through the haze. The building is an important example of mid-century civic architecture in Los Angeles.
