The Geller Theater/Workshop/Studios at 6040 Wilshire preceded Seibu and Orbachs and the Petersen Museum. It seems that the original structure was built around (or before) 1937 and was demolished in 1960 to make way for Seibu. Hard to tell whether the building was an art moderne gem worth saving. Similarities with certain studios on Sunset/Hollywood with a dash of the Simon's signage (Fairfax and Wilshire) suggest that it may have easily deserved honorable mention.
