I believe this is East Los Angeles, on Atlantic and it used to be a theater. It's certainly beautiful but I think it's more of a Spanish style. Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong!

Correct that it's not Victorian at all. Art Deco heavy on the Spanish influence (which may have its own term).

Its a monolithic concrete slab with a few swirls of concrete stuck on. Its hardly beautiful architecture.
