     History
    The center for land use interpretation: The Bank of America building, downtown at 7th and Spring, was the Los Angeles headquarters for the bank from 1930 to 1972. The upstairs offices are now used by the Los Angeles Department of Engineering, while the grand bank lobby, with vaulted ceilings, has been vacant since 1988, and has been used in numerous films, including Traffic, Blow, and Seven. The bank vault on the main floor, as well as the walls behind the counters, are set dressings left from filming. With the change in banking from the full-service branch to ATMs and electronic banking, many bank buildings in America have closed, and several of them in LA are used only as film locations (or UE playgrounds).
