If you take the tunnel from the Municipal Building (old city hall) to the Government Center, look straight up before you enter the tunnel. You will see this gilded stamped tin ceiling provided by a renovation in the 90's. It is a curious, lovely counterpoint to much of the awful makeover that occurred in the 30s when the city expanded its offices. There are spot efforts to restore some of the wonder of this building, here and there. But funds are tight.
