This amazing building that looks like a bunch of records stacked on top of each other with a needle on the top is one of Los Angeles’s unique historical landmarks!
This wonderful treasure of a place was designed by Welton Becket. The tower was constructed and completed in April 1956.
The Capital Records Building or The Capital Records Tower was the world’s very first round building that was designed and created.
Believe it or not, the design of the Capital Records Building was not intended to look like a stack of vinyl records. It was just a coincidence that it does even still today!
