Right... I wish Kanner Architects were still around to complete and add on to their original vision for this tower. How did they ever see this building looking like this from what it looked like before.... and who would ever think to put billboards smack in the middle of the tower which double as walls for some of the bedrooms. The Luckman building on the sunset strip is the horizontal office version of this tower and it looks amazing. Mr. Kanner passed in 2010 and their work will live on. That gas station they did on Slauson is beautiful... and its a freakin gas station!
