Regarding National Biscuit Company Building. This was the west coast headquarters for the National Biscuit Company (Nabisco). Constructed in 1925 for a cost of 2 million dollars, this 7-story factory quickly became an architectural sensation.
In 2006, the building underwent a $25,000,000 renovation to convert the building to lofts, as part of the larger downtown L.A. effort that saw the repurposing of the area's mostly-abandoned industrial structures into live/work lofts. New building amenities include a 75-foot-long saline swimming pool and a gym.
The building was featured in Downtown with Huell Howser.
In 2008 it received the Chicago Title Renovated Buildings Award - Residential.
