First, the majority of the themes and property types significant in military history in Los Angeles are covered under other contexts and themes of the citywide historic context statement as indicated in the “Introduction” below. Second, many of the city’s military resources are already designated City Historic-Cultural Monuments and/or are listed in the National Register.1 Finally, with the exception of air raid sirens, a small number of military-related resources were identified as part of SurveyLA and, as such, did not merit development of full narrative themes and eligibility standards. -

FRED F. FRENCH BUILDING, 551 Fifth Avenue, Borough of Manhattan
Landmarks Preservation Commission March 18, 1986; Designation List 184 LP-1415 FRED F. FRENCH BUILDING, 551 Fifth Avenue, Borough of Manhattan. Built 1926-27; architects: H. Douglas Ives and Sloan & Robertson. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1281, Lot 1 On January 11, 1983, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Fred F. French Building ann the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 10). The hearing was continued to February 8, 1983 (Item No. 5) Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. A total of seven witnesses spoke in favor of designation. The Commission has received several letters ann other expressions of support in favor of this designation. One letter was written in opposition to designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS Located on the northeast corner of 45th Street and Fifth Avenue, the Fred F. French Building was constructed in 1926-27 as corporate headquarters for the prominent real estate firm of the same name. A proto Art Deco design, with strong Near Eastern influences, it represents the stylistic compromise between lingering historicism and the modernistic trends that typified the architecture of the late 1920s. The Near Eastern allusion is enhanced by a dramatic series of setbacks. Although mandated by the Building Code of 1916, these wedding cake-like tiers found a romantic corollary in Assyrian ziggurats. The setbacks taper off to a lofty terraced tower which enriches the midtown skyline with iconographic bas-reliefs, Mesopota~ian in both their imagery and execution in richly colored faience. -
