LAX Theme Building Reopening

The Theme Building, a nearly 50-year-old cultural and historic landmark in the center of LAX's passenger terminal area, began a three-year renovation in February 2007, after a 1,000-pound, 5-foot-by-10-foot panel of the stucco "skin" fell off the underside of the east upper arch. Following removal/demolition of all of the stucco, the renovation included a unique seismic retrofit, reconstruction of the facade of the upper and lower arches, and accessibility upgrades for visitors with disabilities.
