Regarding Château Des Fleurs. Significance Statement:
The property meets the criteria for LAHCM designation because it reflects the broad cultural, political, economic or social history of the nation, state, or community. At this time, apartment buildings and houses filled a need for denser, less expensive housing for the large number of new arrivals to Los Angeles and for those who preferred apartment living. In Hollywood in particular it is a result of a heavy period of growth and urbanization.
