The Roxie Theatre was once the only Art Deco theatre on Broadway, in downtown Los Angeles. It was built as a movie theatre in 1931 and has been closed since 1989. The lobby is now a retail store. I photographed the terrazzo sidewalk in front of the theatre to stress the diagonal lines that flow through the image. These diagonals combine here to create a series of triangles that are a primary element of Art Deco design. I waited for the walking legs to enter the frame and add still another triangle to the image. Thousands of people walk over this patch of terrazzo every day, and very few bother to look down at it. The Roxie, fallen on hard times, certainly deserved a better fate.
