746 S Los Angeles St

The Cornell Building is an 11-story historic mill-to-loft conversion in downtown Los Angeles’ Fashion District, completed in 1922 and repurposed for residential live/work use. Units are primarily studio and one-bedroom lofts that retain industrial character: original steel-framed windows, high (around 10') concrete ceilings, exposed ductwork and polished or matte concrete floors. Interiors commonly feature open floor plans, large kitchen islands or breakfast bars, European-style cabinetry, granite or quartz counters, in-unit stacked laundry, built-in storage and walk-in closets; some homes include private balconies or lofted sleeping areas separated by sliding doors. Common areas emphasize shared recreation and urban convenience. The property is part of the Santee Village cluster and offers rooftop amenities including pool and spas, sundecks, BBQs, a rooftop sports court and fitness center, alongside 24-hour security, on-site management, guest parking and a small on-site market/food court. Parking is available via deeded underground or nearby garage spaces with a nighttime shuttle for some lots. The building participates in the Mills Act historic-property program, yielding substantial property tax reductions for owners. Its location places residents within walking distance of the Flower Market, restaurants, transit, and downtown cultural destinations, supporting a pedestrian, amenity-rich downtown lifestyle.
