This week Clark Canez and Jen Curcio go back to 1929 and explore the Bullocks Wilshire department store, but you probably know it as Southwestern Law School. The interior was designed by Eleanor Lenor and was pulled together by eight unique pieces of art in Art Deco style by artists from Los Angeles. Once known as the Cathedral of Commerce, this decadent department store had such fantastic deals people shopped ’til they dropped to the afterlife and decided to stick around FOREVER! Even though it’s now a law school, the shoppers of the past are still looking for a deal. We also have our first sponsor from the past.
