This neat Art Deco building was built in 1932 for the Arcadia News/Journal newspapers. The entrance and canopy above it on the left in this photo was originally just a window that matched the other two on the first floor. There was originally a narrow neon sign about as tall as the second floor window above the main entrance canopy. The building underwent some restoration about 2004 or so. It was occupied by a funeral home when we went by in 2019.

xThe tower features neat Art Deco styling.

xThe relief sculptures were designed by J.J. Mora.

xThere's a small plaque on the front of the building noting it's historic status..

x About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
xDid You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
