I thought it was a clever alteration to the original. Given the poor condition of the piece and the basically worthlessness of it no longer being original I decided to go full on "there, I fixed it"

Ironically it's as accurate as a contemporary lie detector.

I do short story / documentary. I’d really like to have a nice camera set up, but that does sound lovely.

Two reasons, buildings were kept low due to earthquake threats. Then, as technology progressed to the point that the tall buildings roll during earthquakes, they became more common, Second, part of the skyline is left open so that the LA City Hall can be seen from a distance, the 10 Freeway for example. Anyone can visit the City Hall and it's worth the view and art deco appearance.
