When the doors first opened in October 1917, the “Wonder Market,” as it was then called, was billed as “the largest and finest public market on the Pacific Coast.” It filled the entire ground floor of the Beaux-Arts-style Homer Laughlin Building, the region’s first steel-reinforced, fireproof structure. At the time, Los Angeles was the country’s tenth-most-populous city—and downtown was the epicenter of a flourishing metropolis.
