Bunker Hill Steps

This is one of downtown Los Angeles' most unique architectural offerings. Wrapping around the base of the US Bank Tower, this huge and exhausting stairway was designed by Lawrence Halprin in 1990. The stairs link the two halves of the business district, Bunker Hill and Hope Street. It includes a number of landscaped pedestrian areas. In the middle of the steps, is flowing water that ends in a small pond.
