Higgins – Downtown

Higgins Building Higgins Downtown The Higgins Building is a historical building on the north end of Historic Core. It was originally built in 1910, and was one of the first earthquake and fire proof building in downtown when it was built a century ago. It is also one of the first historic buildings to be renovated, in 2003.

Besides it convenient location to the Art District, and the Financial district, the building also sports some popular destinations. This includes Fire Pit Pizza downstairs, and the Edison Club, maybe the most popular and eclectic club in downtown. There in fact, is a staircase that leads to the Edison from the Higgins Building. But you usually have to go through the front gate to enter the club.

The lofts have been created with Beaux-Art style. They have many original fixtures. Some of these include marble staircases, iron doors, and iron-cage elevator.

Some features of the interior of the lofts include stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, 10 foot ceilings, concrete floors, big windows, original tiles, and exposed brick.

There is a roof top with views of downtown Los Angeles. There is a BBQ pit there as well. On the ground level, in the middle of the Higgins Building, is a garden where you can lounge with others.

One of the financial advantages to the Higgings Building, besides its low prices, is that it’s approved for the Mills Act, which means you get anywhere from a 20% to 70% reduction off of your property tax.

One nice feature of the interior is the amount of light that comes into the lofts. This occurs because of the unusually high number of windows to square footage.

Douglas Building

Douglas Building 1024x768 Douglas Building The Douglas Building is located in the outer skirts of Historic Core, near the financial district towards the northern end of downtown. It is near the Disney Concert Hall, Mark Taper Forum, and the Museum of Contemporary Art.

The loft building is one of the oldest in downtown. It was built in 1898 by a famous real estate mogul named Thomas Stimson. It was originally a commercial building.

In 2005, the building was renovated. It now serves as a residential building for people who enjoy the historical and artistic elements of downtown.

The one thing that distinguishes this building from several of the other “older” building in downtown is it’s cleanliness and it’s upkeep by the HOA management team. You would not suspect that this building is more than 110 years old based on the “feel” of the halls and rooms. It is definitely one of the most well kept buildings in downtown.

The Douglas lofts are considered to be “New York” style. Some features of the loft include high ceilings, exposed brick walls, and hardwood flooring.
