Frostonya mystery

Wondering if anyone might have suggestions about a mystery about the Frostonya apartments. Photo here from LAPL.
In big pictorial map of LA from 1932 called Greater Los Angeles the Wonder City of America... the artist draws a big circle around the Frostonya. The artist was a transplanted German named Karl Leuschner who created this great map but why was the Frostonya singled out? Leuschner did not seem to live there and the company who published the map were not in the building.
