1301 Ocean Avenue, Santa Monica

Here's one for all you guys that have done such great research. 1301 Ocean Avenue, Santa Monica is a wonderful example of Streamline combined with Art Deco. It was built in 1939, but by whom? Remodeled in 2008 at a supposed cost of $30 million (I suspect a questionable figure). In 2010 it gained somewhat Noirish status by virtue of an incident involving a number of individuals of the Jewish faith.

Note the differences in the signage the photo in the article, as well as the removal / addition of shrubs.
