9720 WILSHIRE — Beverly Hills, CA

Architect: Montalba Architects | Photography: Kevin Scott

In 2021, the historic Edward Durell Stone building at 9720 Wilshire underwent a 20,500 SF renovation that transformed the building’s interior spaces and plaza to create a more functional and modern office—all while staying true to the original design intent and retaining the iconic facade.

As the structural consultant on this project, LFA provided the design for the plaza alterations as well as for the seismic upgrade, which enabled the addition of complex features like the sunken garden. Newly revamped, the building can continue to shape the Los Angeles community and architectural landscape for years to come.
