late night with guy mondo

The interior of the Bradbury Building in Los Angeles, CA taken with a Canon TX in 1988. This is the real-life building used in the movie Blade Runner as well as some other, mostly forgotten, movies and television shows. I found the building totally by accident. There was a mural across the street that I wanted to get a better shot of so I wandered into this unassuming looking building and was stunned by the beautiful, bright interior with a glass roof. It took me a few minutes of wandering around before it dawned on me that I'd seen this place before. It wasn't until months later, as I was looking thruogh my photos that I made the connection to the movie. I also realized that it was the same building used for one of my favorite episodes of The Outer Limits (original series) titled " Demon With a Glass Hand ".
