Program: 72 units, 11,500 sf retail  

The Grether and Grether Building located at 730 S. Los Angeles Street is a fine example of the commercial / industrial / mercantile loft type building built in Los Angeles in the 1920s.  It is surrounded by similar concrete-framed warehouse buildings that were converted to lofts in the early 2000’s and became Santee Court.  The building features tall ceilings, exposed concrete floors, walls and columns and large “Soho Loft” style tilt windows, making it ideal for creative loft units.

The building was the “missing link” in Santee Court.  It is situated in the middle of the block, surrounded by residential units and fronts the pedestrian alley that forms the spine of the surrounding residential complex.  It was developed to be compatible with it’s neighbors and features an expansive roof deck and ample amenity spaces on the existing mezzanine level.  At the ground floor, the double-height central gallery space and grand stairway remains and will be lined with small retail shops and a restaurant.
