History

[edit]

The Orient was built in 1927 and remodeled in 1937.[1]

In 1984, the Hollywood Boulevard Commercial and Entertainment District was added to the National Register of Historic Places, with The Orient listed as a contributing property in the district.[1]

Architecture

[edit]

The Orient is made of concrete and small in scale, and it features colored marble and aluminum banding, giving it a modern yet faintly Art Deco look. The United States Department of the Interior describe the building as having "sleek sophistication" and being "a good example of exterior signage" on Hollywood Boulevard.[1]
