High Tower Apartments - Hollywood

The High Tower Apartments are a unique complex with a great view near the Hollywood Bowl.
In the Raymond Chandler film THE LONG GOOD BYE, detective Philip Marlowe  lived here.
Since Michael Connelly (the author) was a big fan of Raymond Chandler novels, he used the location in his book ECHO PARK.  The garages are on the ground level and residents get keys to the elevator (which is the tower).  The property is very unusual and also very charming.  Who wouldn't love to live there with the great views?
