The Produce Terminal of Los Angeles is set apart by its scale and its role as a wholesale hub, a place where growers' trucks unloaded and buyers from across the region came to bid on fruit and vegetables. Markets like this one grew up around rail lines and highways in the early twentieth century, when fresh produce had to move quickly from farm fields to city tables. The terminal's stacked crates and busy loading docks show how much of Southern California's agricultural economy passed through a single working yard. Looking closely, you can see the logistics that kept a growing city fed: the crates, the hand trucks, and the crowds of buyers and workers moving between them.
