Standing tall in Exposition Park, the magnificent Washingtonia filifera, known as the "Arcade Palm," has witnessed over a century of history. Transplanted in 1914 near the bustling intersection of Exposition Park Drive and Figueroa, this iconic tree has endured much, from droughts to urban change. It once welcomed travelers at the Arcade Depot, heralding the allure of Los Angeles as the "promised land." Nearby, cultural milestones flourished with the opening of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and the birth of the city’s thriving arts scene. This resilient palm embodies the spirit of a vibrant city, standing as a living testament to time.
