Regarding Colonial House. This seven-story building was designed by architect Leland A. Bryant in the French colonial architectural style. It was built in 1930 on an 80-by-190-foot lot south of Sunset Boulevard. The Colonial House has long been a home to celebrities, including Bette Davis, Cary Grant, Clark Gable, Carol Lombard, Myrna Loy, Eddie Cantor, William Powell, Norma Talmadge and Joan Blondell. In recent years pop singer Katy Perry purchased a residence, continuing the building's legacy for being a home for stars.
