Figueroa Tower’s beautiful exterior combines the characteristics of traditional French architecture with the sleek verticality of a modern high-rise. These attributes, together with its location at the center of the Figueroa Financial Corridor, offer an aesthetic experience unlike any retail destination in all of Los Angeles. This corridor was solidified abuilding in California, the Wilshire Grand Center, opened directly across the street. This prestigious location boasts a high pedestrian volume and an unparalleled daily traffic count of 30,000. Such volume is thanks in part to being just steps away from retail supercenter FIGat7th, as well as sitting immediately above Seventh Street Metro Center Station, the busiest subway station in Los Angeles by far. Figueroa Tower also benefits from ongoing improvements to Downtown Los Angeles, which is currently undergoing its largest construction boom since the 1920s. In the last decade alone, 42 developments of at least 50,000 square feet have been built and 37 projects are under construction. This renaissance of development has reignited the once-sleepy downtown area into a sprawling metropolis of urban residential lofts and diverse retail destinations.

In literature, a fairy-tale was often a story inhabited by supernatural beings. If this supernaturalness is in nature and stays within its realms, then magic is the perfect word for Sète. A place that polarizes liberties, free spirits and anarchists, in the etymological sense of the word.» Michel Onfray (philosopher), «Féeries Sétoises», 2016 «When I arrived in Los Angeles, I didn’t know a soul. In New York, people told me ‘you’re crazy going over there when you don’t have a single friend and don’t drive. If you want to go the West Coast, go to San Francisco.’ My reply was ‘no, no, Los Angeles is the place for me.’» David Hockney, «David Hockney by David Hockney», 1976 THE CONCEPT Sète has never ceased to attract and produce artists. It’s a city of artists. A pool of talent, a hotbed. Few towns can boast such a compelling identity to which artists have such a deep-rooted attachment. Some pass through, some have chosen to live there, others were born there. The first artists who come to mind are musician Georges Brassens, film director Agnès Varda and theater director Jean Vilar. Three exceptional artists, three libertarians and anti-conformists who loved a city now and forever associated with their talent.
