Complex Love is back after a long sabbatical, this time with a multi-unit courtyard apartment in Silver Lake (near Cafe Tropical, the famous local cuban bakery with almond cigars and mango cheese turnovers to die for) with a Moorish architectural style that reminds us that LA has always been about imagination.
Complex Love is a photographic celebration of Southern California's unique apartment architecture history. Live in or nearby an apartment complex of notable or unusual design? Please submit photos and information to la (at) apartmenttherapy (dot) com.















Oh, my goodness (this is the East Coast speaking) -- how wonderful! you can just imagine the romances (and broken hearts) that place has seen.

That would be a FUN place to live. Looks like a movie set.

I've driven by this place so many times on the way home. Now, get us inside one of the apartments.

It looks great but too bad they changed out the original front windows. Someone in Los Angeles needs to ban vinyl window replacement and quick!

I hear you perejil. It seems like every old apartment building in Seattle has ugly vinyl windows that just look C-H-E-A-P too. I heard that for a while the city was actually subsidizing vinyl window replacements in rentals because of the energy saved. That's a worthy cause, but there has to be a way of going about it that's more in keeping with the aesthetic of old buildings.

Thanks Gregory, I've really missed this feature! Did you happen to notice if they have any openings?? ;->>

Hi oceandreamer56: last I checked, there weren't any vacancies. I'll keep an eye out for it when I pass by.
