DESCRIPTION
This is a Mills Act Property which means you only pay about 30% property tax. So, it balances out the HOA fees.
Clad in stunning turquoise terra cotta and gold leaf, the Eastern Columbia Outfitting Companies' 13-story art deco retail tower epitomized the height of opulence when it opened in 1930. Today, this zig zag moderne landmark enshrined on Los Angeles' list of historic and cultural monuments dazzles anew - and offers buyers a timeless backdrop for urbane living.
Spacious, sophisticated, urbane: each of Eastern Columbia's 147 light-filled loft condominiums juxtapose luxurious contemporary upgrades and classic period details.
Equal measures of elegance permeate the entry court and sky-high pool deck, leisure terrace and fitness studio. Directed by internationally acclaimed interior designer Kelly Wearstler Interior Design (kwid) and award-winning architectural firm Killefer Flammang Architects, the detailed redesign brings new polish to Eastern Columbia's faceted beauty.
Moments from Downtown L.A. hotspots like Staples Center, the Arts District and Disney Hall, Eastern Columbia towers over Downtown's Historic Core. At the hem of the Fashion, Jewelry and South Park Districts, the Historic Core is the city's authentic commercial downtown. Regaining their poise after decades of slumber, the neighborhood's Victorian, Beaux Arts and Art Deco buildings are now home to intrepid residents, shops, restaurants and cultural magnets.
As a historic showplace for fashion and furnishings, urbane elegance runs deep in Eastern Columbia's lineage. New residents stand to inherit that storied architectural and cultural legacy within their lofts and throughout the tower's common areas.
Inside the loft residences, windows stretching up to 14 feet frame vibrant cityscape views. Once voluminous showrooms, the spaces become vivid backdrops for relaxation, work and leisure. Newly constructed kitchens and baths feature premium appointments made even more luxurious by appliance, fixture and finish upgrade options. Technological updates, including high-speed Internet access and digital climate control, promise bodily comfort and media accessibility.
On the rooftop, new amenities abound under the famous Eastern clock tower. The sky-high leisure terrace boasts a swimming pool, spa, fireplace, lounging cabanas, plus a fitness studio featuring aerobic and weight resistance equipment.
At the lobby level, a landscaped entry courtyard heralds your arrival; storefront retailers purvey day-to-day essentials for residential living. In signature Eastern Columbia tradition, service and style greet residents and visitors alike.

The Historic Core
Loosely outlined by 3rd Street on the north edge, 10th Street to the south, Hill to the west and Main to the east, the Historic Core was the cradle of early Los Angeles commerce and entertainment. A frequent backdrop for film sets, the area's lofty Victorian, Beaux Arts and Art Deco buildings instantly telegraph urban history and culture. But it's at the pedestrian level that the Historic Core truly reveals its deep roots - and its rising outlook.
Along Broadway, retailers vend diverse wares at Grand Central Market and the Arcade building, and vintage movie palaces host concerts and dance clubs. At 7th and Hill, five thousand precious gem and metal retailers make up the largest jewelry district outside of New York. On Spring Street, the former "Wall Street of the West" has come back to life as Gallery Row, a creative live-work haven. In the midst of it all, Biddy Mason Park features memorial art, shade, greenery and the whistles of city birds.
Just a few blocks from the Historic Core's fringes, more burgeoning districts and attractions beckon. It's just a hop to South Park (home to Staples Center and the Convention Center) and the Civic Center (Disney Hall and MOCA); a skip to the Fashion and Wholesale Districts (where Santee Alley and the Marts reign); and a jump to Little Tokyo and the Arts District (Japanese-American Museum, Sci-Arc).
