The Barry Building
The Barry Building is a landmark commercial mid-twentieth century modern building located at 11973 San Vicente Boulevard in the heart of the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. It was designed by architect Milton Caughey (1911-1958) and completed in 1951. In 2007, the building was listed as a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument,(Historical Cultural Monument #887), making it one of the few mid-century modern commercial buildings to gain such status. It was identified by the Los Angeles Cultural Heritage Commission as being a well-preserved and notable example of the California-style modern design. Despite this designation, the building's current owners received permission to demolish the building in 2019. As of March 2021, the building has not yet been demolished, however it is currently boarded up and vacant. The building's best-known feature is an unusual open courtyard which once housed Dutton's bookstore. The building may soon be demolished as a part of the proposed Green Hollow Square development.
