History

The building at 4th and Main in 1923

Isaias W. Hellman, a German-born American Jewish businessman and banker, had his home on the site of this building on Main St. He sold his home to the Farmers and Merchants Bank of Los Angeles, and this office building was constructed in 1912 around two sides of the Farmers & Merchants National Bank Building. Like the main bank building, it was designed by L.A. architects Morgan, Walls & Morgan. The Spring Street Annex was completed in 1914. [2][4]

In the 1990s, it was designated a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument, number 721.
