Preferred Citation Bullock's Department Store Collection of Photographs. The Huntington Library, San Marino, California. Provenance Gift of Ted Stiner, 1996. Processing Information The collection was rehoused and numbered, and a Container List prepared, by Jane Apostol in 2005. The original finding aid was prepared by Jennifer Watts in August 2005. Physical Characteristics or Technical Requirements Arrangements for viewing the glass plate negatives must be made with the Curator of Photographs. Historical Note The original Bullock's Department Store was designed by the architectural firm of Parkinson and Bergstrom and opened in March 1907 at 639-657 South Broadway in Los Angeles, California. Bullock's flagship store proved so successful that it expanded quarters in 1912. The company purchased adjacent buildings in 1917 and 1919 for a total of 460,000 square feet. "By 1920," writes Richard Longstreth, "Bullock's and Robinson's functioned as anchors to an elite shopping precinct that was unprecedented in Los Angeles." Between 1923 and 1928, Bullock's added an additional 400,000 square feet through the construction of three more additions while also purchasing two adjacent buildings. Bullock's Inc. eventually opened a second store on Wilshire Boulevard (1929) as well as additional stores in Westwood Village (1932), Pasadena (1947), and Fashion Square in Orange County (1958). Scope and Contents Bullock's Department Store photCL 401 2 Collection of Photographs: Finding Aid The Bullock's Department Store Collection consists of 680 photographs and 29 glass plate negatives related to the Los Angeles, California-based department store between 1905 and 1971 (bulk 1912-1945), as well as 2 boxes of ephemera related to Bullock's publicity and events between 1915 and 1952. The materials focus primarily on the retail spaces, displays, departments, and employees at the downtown Los Angeles store once located at Broadway, 7th, and Hill Streets. The collection is the remnant of (what seems to have been) a larger archive of albums assembled and annotated in-house to document the various functions associated with the store. As such, the photographs depict every aspect of the store's workings including: the full range of departments, many shown with thematic decorations for holidays and special events; window displays; store merchandising; employee activities and gatherings such as dances, holiday parties, Easter worship services and group portraits; children's parties and parades; advertising billboards; the August sales event and crowds; and construction scenes from 1912 and 1928. The collection is particularly strong in its documentation of the store's window displays and merchandising efforts. There are also many pictures of mannequins dressed in the latest fashions for men, women, and children. The World War II home front effort is a theme that occurs throughout the collection in various display motifs and in employee events. Many photographs depict the store's workforce including female sales clerks, male cooks and security guards, and African American employees in various capacities. Eight pictures at the end of Volume 9 depict Bullock's branch locations including the famed Bullock's Wilshire store. Volume 11 contains promotional and ephemeral materials from 1948 through 1952 associated with the Bullock's Wilshire store. Photographers represented in the collection include Warren Bowen Studios; Brown and Warrington; duBois Photo Co.; Frank C. Elliott; Jim England; Graham Photo; Keystone Photo; J.C. Milligan; Ernest Pratt; Otto Rothschild; Stagg Photography; Art Streib; "Dick" Whittington Studio; Whitland Locke Commercial Photography; and Witzel Photo. Arrangement The collection is arranged by format: loose photographs (Box 1), photograph albums (Boxes 2-11), ephemera (Boxes 12-13), and glass plate negatives (Boxes 14-15). • "Dick" Whittington Studio Collection of Negatives and Photographs (photCL Whitt) Index Terms The following terms have been used to index the description of this collection in the Huntington Library's Online Catalog.

    ATTACHMENT “A” REQUEST FOR DISCRETIONARY APPROVAL L.A.M.C. §12.24 M Chipotle Mexican Grill Store #1500 601 W. 7th St. Los Angeles Chipotle Mexican Grill (Chipotle Mexican Grill, LLC, d/b/a Chipotle Mexican Grill, (“the Applicant” and/or “Chipotle”) is seeking the following discretionary approval: Pursuant to L.A.M.C. Section 12.24 M, the Applicant requests a Plan Approval for the continued sale and/or dispensing of alcohol for on-site consumption in connection with an existing 104-seat, 3,042 s.f. restaurant with hours of operation from 10:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, located on a 10,463 s.f. lot in the C2-4D zone. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Applicant, Chipotle, is requesting a Plan Approval to permit the continued service of a full line of alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption at its existing location at 601 W. 7th St. in Downtown Los Angeles (“Site”). Chipotle opened in March 2011, and has served beer since its opening date pursuant to Case No. ZA 2010- 2296 (CUB) ("Existing Approval"), which approved the restaurant to serve a full line of alcoholic beverages. The restaurant is 3,042 s.f. and provides 104 indoor seats. The Applicant currently holds a type 41 ABC license (beer and wine), but would continue to like the operational flexibility to upgrade the license in order to add margaritas to its offerings at a future date. The request herein is only a renewal and is purely operational in nature. The Applicant believes that its request for a Plan Approval for the continued service of alcoholic beverages for on-site consumption along with meals at its “fast casual” Mexican-style restaurant is warranted based upon the company’s outstanding record of compliance with the California Department of Alcoholic Beverages (“ABC”), the appropriateness of the location for the requested use, and its overall reputation as a well-established, responsible company which can be trusted to manage the requested ABC license appropriately.

This report concludes that the commercial building at 1314 Seventh Street is eligible for listing as a City of Santa Monica Landmark under Criterion 1 for its association with Santa Monica’s telephone industry, under Criterion 2 for its aesthetic or artistic interest, and under Criterion 4 as a rare local example of a PWA Moderne commercial building. This conclusion is based on a review of previous survey findings for the area, the relevant historic contexts, and an analysis of the eligibility criteria and integrity thresholds for local designation. Research included review of building permits and historic maps; historic newspaper articles in the Los Angeles Times; and historic photographs housed at the Santa Monica Public Library.
