Designed by esteemed 1920s architect William Douglas Lee, 719 S. Los Angeles Street is a visual highlight of the downtown landscape. Completed in 1928, the edifice holds characteristic elements of Neo-Gothic Architectural style popularized during the era, including impeccable brickwork and ornate finishes inlaid within the structure’s facade.
The 12-story building was originally home to Palmer Silk Co. H.O., Grassmuck Co., and Scranton Lace Co., among other notable retail and design-oriented tenants of the time. Very much considered to be a symbol of success, 719 S Los Angeles Street was said to host tenants who were leaders of industry and design and it remains committed to that purpose as its current occupants continue to reflect the entrepreneurial spirit of creative design, photography, trade and production.
Today, the building remains a stunning reminder of the enduring relationship between the beauty of form and function within architecture. The buildings house Los Angeles’ most creative and innovative brands in fashion, design, and manufacturing. Creative office space available with has packaged lockers for the building.
