Following a decline during World War II, the popularity of Zen Buddhism in America boomed in the 1950s and 1960s. The Zenshuji Soto Mission has occupied this site near Little Tokyo since at least 1967. Earlier buildings were demolished to make way for the current temple building, completed in 1971. Less than 50 years old and not of exceptional importance; therefore not eligible for listing in the National Register.

Ball as the architect, other sources identify the architect as H.L. Gilman, who later became staff architect for the Santa Fe Railroad. The building's poured-in-place concrete construction was considered so sturdy that the building was designated a civilian bomb shelter during World War II. Used as a warehouse and manufacturing plant over the course of its life, it was purchased for conversion to residential lofts in 2002. Today, the building is known as the Toy Factory Lofts, referencing its last industrial use as an assembly plant for stuffed animals.

The mural on the left, entitled "Picture of Viewing Waterfalls in Summer Mountains," is designed in the style of a Sung Dynasty landscape ink drawing.
