Crowned - Malaga Cove School Tower

Malaga Cove School, now the Administration Center for PV School District, was built in 1926 as the first permenant school on the peninsula. Architects: Allison and Allison, "Mediterranean, with a tower that seems to be derived from late-15th or early-16th century Spanish examples." [Ref. An Architectural Guidebook to Los Angeles by David Gebhard and Robert Winter.]

Really fine image, Tash, from the shadows, to the choice of b&w, to the framing of the steeple.

Truly appreciate this close up shot as I was intrigued by this same tower in your Jan. 8th photo post. It looks perfect in Black and White, suits it very well.
