Outpost Building is a historic office building complex at 6701 W. Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California.

History

Outpost Building was built by E. Parcher in 1920.[1]

In 1984, the Hollywood Boulevard Commercial and Entertainment District was added to the National Register of Historic Places, with the Outpost Building listed as a contributing property in the district.[1]

Architecture

Outpost Building consists of two two-story buildings originally separated by a courtyard, then joined by a second story arcaded passage. The building features two competing architectural styles: Spanish Colonial Revival and French Regency. Elements of Spanish Colonial Revival include a red tiled roof, bell tower, arched windows, and wrought iron balconies, while the building's French Regency elements include a swan-necked pediment and stone medallions.[1]
