Design
Art Deco Hollywood Station.
In 1937, renowned Art Deco architect Claud Beelman, a partner at Curlett + Beelman, was commissioned by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) to design the Hollywood Post Office Building. He worked with the Los Angeles architectural firm Allison & Allison.[2] Beelman also designed the Los Angeles County Fair Gallery, also commissioned by the WPA in 1937, now known as the Millard Sheets Center for the Arts at Fairplex.
A wooden bas-relief for interior lobby, titled The Horseman, was carved by artist Gordon Newell as a Treasury Relief Art Project commission. It is still in the building, located over a doorway.
