LEARN TO WALK ALL OVER AGAIN! LA'S ORIGINAL SKY-SCRAPER, OFFERING SPACIOUS LIVE WORK ACCOMMODATIONS IN AN ECLECTIC NEIGHBORHOOD SETTING. The Continental was originally named the Braly building, after John Hyde Braly, who was a leading financier in Los Angeles who oversaw construction of the building.The Continental was the first fully-representative building of Beaux Arts style in Los Angeles, with a façade distinguished by rich ornaments of terra cotta, striking cornice bends, pediments, and project lion heads. The building is also known as the first skyscraper in Downtown Los Angeles. It was built shortly before the city enacted a height restriction in 1905 on all future buildings, making it the tallest building until the 1960s with the only exception being City Hall. The Continental stood at a height of 175 feet, unmatched by any building for over 50 years. The architectural makeup of Spring Street is such that the Continental still remains the tallest within the Historic Core, with most buildings only reaching a maximum of 12 stories at heights under 150 feet.The building originally served as an office space, later housed by many banks as part of the early 20th century attempt to mirror New York's Financial District. Spring Street at the time was commonly referred to as "Financial District West."

City - Los Angeles

Los Angeles sprawls across nearly 500 square miles between the Pacific Ocean and the San Gabriel Mountains, making it one of the few places where you can surf in the morning and hike through chaparral-covered hills by afternoon. Sunshine, open-air farmers markets, and a food scene that pulls from dozens of culinary traditions are a staple of living in the city.

Neighborhoods each have a distinct personality surrounding a particular focus, whether it be culture or nature. Westwood keeps residents close to entertainment at the University of Southern California and the Hammer Museum's rotating art exhibitions. Koreatown is a cultural and food destination, known for authentic restaurants and shops paired with a bustling street energy and nightlife.

The city overflows with iconic landmarks, from natural to man-made. Griffith Park, one of the largest urban parks in the country, offers hiking trails, sweeping skyline views, and the iconic Griffith Observatory.
