Regal Shoes Building
Regal Shoes is a historic two-story building at 6349 W. Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California.
History
Regal Shoes, built in 1939, was designed in the Streamline Moderne style by the architectural firm Walker & Eisen, who were responsible for many of Los Angeles's most notable buildings, including the Fine Arts Building, Hollywood Plaza Hotel, Taft Building, United Artists Theatre, and more. The building has many features common in Streamline Moderne design, including a rounded corner, porthole windows, banded windows, and a Terrazzo entry.
In 1984, the Hollywood Boulevard Commercial and Entertainment District was added to the National Register of Historic Places, with Regal Shoes listed as a contributing property in the district.
