The Warwick Condominiums, 1928 with renovations in 1992. Designed in the Italian Beaux Arts style, this mid-rise complex of only 25 units is a contributing structure to Historic Places LA. Anchoring the tree-lined corridor of Sycamore Avenue at 1st street in Hancock Park, the Warwick is one of several historic apartment buildings in the neighborhood renown for their elegance and “old world” period details. The building’s dramatic features include a formal gated entry and large lobby, mailbox area, rear fountain courtyard with seating, wrought iron handrails and bronze elevator clock. Unit #102 underwent a renovation to include Poggenpohl kitchen cabinets with recessed lighting and Meile appliances. The French windows throughout the unit have custom shades and Juliet balconies, and there is a walk-in closet with a shelving system in the bedroom. Only 1 block east of La Brea, many of Los Angeles’ legacy shops and restaurants are just around the corner: American Rag, Maison Midi, M Cafe, Sugarfish, Sycamore Kitchen, and many other shops and restaurants are only a few blocks away. The building also includes laundry on every level, a fitness center, underground and guest parking.
