History

[edit | edit source]

Regal Shoes, built in 1939, was designed by the architectural firm Walker & Eisen, who were responsible for many of Los Angeles's most notable buildings, including the Fine Arts Building, Hollywood Plaza Hotel, Taft Building, United Artists Theatre, and more.[1]

In 1984, the Hollywood Boulevard Commercial and Entertainment District was added to the National Register of Historic Places, with Regal Shoes listed as a contributing property in the district.[2]

Regal Shoes Building was owned by the Church of Scientology as of 2006,[3] and the Sea Org logo is located on the exterior of the building.

Architecture and design

The Regal Shoes Building features a Streamline Moderne design that includes a rounded corner, porthole windows, banded windows, and a Terrazzo entry.[2]
