photo - Long Beach Airport Terminal Stairs

            There are two stairwells, one at each end of the Terminal (built in 1941).  Mosaic tile artworks are throughout the building.  From the airport website: "The use of ceramic mosaic floor tiles throughout the building was an innovative way to include extensive mural decoration as public art in a building with a lot of glass and other functional constraints. The themes and decorative style of the ceramic murals were unique and innovative. Although the imagery was representational, the stylized forms reflected modern post-war artistic trends. The symbolic elements were selected to enrich the experience of the traveler, and evoke a larger context for air travel with allusions to other forms of transportation and communication in the world."
