[4] Originally the Hollywood branch of the six-location Security Trust and Savings Bank,[5] this location was considered "a power center of the entertainment industry", with clients that included Charlie Chaplin, the Three Stooges, Lana Turner, W.C. Fields, Cecil B. DeMille, Howard Hughes, and more.

[10] Security Trust and Savings is a steel reinforced masonry office building that features an Italian Renaissance Revival design.

Cornice decorations, including sculpted lion heads and carved brackets featuring recessed floral medallions, punctuate the roof line.

Additionally, The Brasher Doubloon, a film adaption of Chandler's The High Window, features this building as that location.

[11] The intersection outside this building is named Raymond Chandler Square as a tribute to the belief that Phillip Marlowe's office was located here.
