The Hotel Normandie’s rich history is part of its’ charm. This iconic building has deep roots in LA's Wilshire District and was originally developed in 1926 by famed Los Angeles architects Albert R. Walker and Percy A. Eisen. The Walker & Eisen architectural duo produced many of Los Angeles' most iconic buildings during the 1920's and 30's including the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, United Theater on Broadway and the Fine Arts Building. Hotel Normandie's façade was pure Renaissance Revival while the interiors held a distinct spanish colonial revival motif. JLD stripped the hotel down to the basics and restored all of the features that made it special.
