Not sure if it’s safe enough, but still a good place to visit

The 360° observation deck on the 27th floor of the City Hall is a perfect place to see everything that is around. So is Mayor Tom Bradley room on the 26th floor it has huge portraits of every single mayor of Los Angeles. Enter through Main Street entrance and bring proof of vaccination. Then it's a quick ride on 3 different elevators up to the 27th floor.

This has to be one of the greatest city halls in the United States! This monument to the Los Angeles city government is not just an historical landmark, it’s also functional! Renovated as the main building for conducting official business in LA. On a recent visit, I was told to check back for access, as the staff were returning to normal operations soon. So I’ll relate my pre-pandemic experience here, with an update review pending. After sitting in on a City Counsel meeting, I had a look around the ornate ground floor, where a security guard directed me to the back door security desk. There I was given a form to fill out to continue my self guided tour. I was directed to take two separate elevators, then up a floor of stairs to the top floors which were open for viewing. There’s historical references, exhibits and spectacular 360° views from over 400’ high! Getting to the LA City Hall may be the only expense, as paid parking and public transit via city bus or Metro rail and ride services, may be the way to go. Reopening of COVID-19 related closures of sections may be staggered with recent staff and resource changes taking place. I’d suggest calling the info line or checking online updates before planning to visit the building.

The observation deck has great views of the city. Be prepared to pass through security and metal detectors. You'll need to swap elevators once and still climb another set of stairs. Everyone was friendly and the view was fantastic. We were able to take pictures of the Griffith Observatory and later that day took pictures of the City Hall from the Observatory. The only downside was the parking deck is underground a block away. To get from the deck to the building you pass through a park with an assortment of homeless sleeping on the benches and in the bushes.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

I am pretty sure they are going to want you to get the certificate where you got maried, but they might allow you to get it at this city hall. I would suggest that you go to this city hall and try to talk to someone from the main office to see if they would help you. You can also go to the city hall's website for more information. Good luck!

It might also help if you call them at the phone number listed here so that someone can tell you exactly where you need to go or visit their website for more information. Congratulations and good luck to you!

Correction: there's no visitors' parking at City Hall unless someone who works there arranges for a spot for you and communicates this to the parking staff at the gate. You could also look around for a parking meter on the surrounding streets.

I want to know if I can ask help how to start a business or is there a livelihood programs? Interested.

Lydkmhyhmku Willoughby | Aug 20, 2018
Southern California | Aug 19, 2020

You have to pay. I would recommend you go to a funding site. Here is the deal, if your looking for that to make extra money because you heard about it and want to try to try it. Then do not do it. If you have a passion for it it fine. I have a passion for the homeless but not for that. First you have to write a plan. Keep in mind, it would be good to find people with mental issues, they are probably the hardest to deal with, if uou get about five or six of them. You may get up to 5k a month for each one. I woumd say that 15 to 20% to you, then the rest for living, doctors, and also once you do that, you could sell your house with the business, after 20 years when you are unable to carry them because of age. But the ones tnat need it and only if you care. And make sure you get a new vehicle, the ones i would pick wouldnt need job training just care and a safe environment for them. You know you caring for human beings right? This is not a game.
