The Outpost Building, 6715 Hollywood Blvd is named for the Outpost adobe (as is Outpost Dr, etc)
There were adobes all over the Los Angeles area during the era of them, roofed with brea from the tar pits. There's still a few scattered about.
The Capitulation of Cahuenga actually wasn't signed at the adobe pictured, that's just more of our fictionalized history, and it wasn't between the US & Mexico (the Treaty of Guadalupe Hildago was a separate event), but just to end local hostilities between Fremont and the Californios.
