Neutra offices for sale

OfficeThe building at 2379 Glendale Boulevard in Silver Lake is on the market for $2,995,000, according to an email from Dion Neutra. It's where his father Richard Neutra, who died in 1970, had his practice and it housed the firm from the 1950s into the 1990s. The building is "the ONLY surviving example of unadulterated Neutra Commercial design," Dion writes. "This is truly a milestone in the history of modernism, and has implications for the preservation of a totally unique example of the modernism of the recent past, now already into its second fifty." Los Angeles Historic Cultural Monument #676 is where the designs were conceived for Neutra's Chavez Ravine Housing Project, the U.S. Pakistan Embassy, the Gettysburg Memorial Cyclorama Center, the L.A. County Hall of Records and the Santa Ana County Courthouse. It currently houses Ehrenkrantz Eckstut & Kuhn Architects.
