5670 Wilshire Boulevard

5670 Wilshire Boulevard is an iconic 27-story tower in the historic Miracle Mile district of Los Angeles, commanding attention as one of the tallest buildings on the Westside with visibility across the city.

It was built in 1962 as office space for the California Federal Bank, and current tenants now include firms in tech, media, and the arts. Rapt Studio was enlisted by the property owner and affiliated property manager to design thoughtful, best-in-class amenities to promote wellness and productivity for these new tenants, so we capitalized on the opportunity to reimagine the exterior, ground floor, and subterranean spaces to bring about a sense of community and shared experience in the building’s common areas. While it used to be enough for a commercial building to offer city views and a parking garage, discerning tenants now want more. Our new program offers an appealing, functional array of amenities to meet evolved needs. Tenants can now work out or unwind in the new fitness center, which features a yoga/boxing studio and private shower rooms. They can schedule their meetings in a modern, reconfigurable conference center, relax and make coffee in the lounge, and screen their work in a professional-grade theater. They can gather and host events in the refreshed exterior courtyard, too. Located along Miracle Mile’s famed “Museum Row,” the building features a remarkable arts program along with scalloped marble walls, fluted custom wood, and sculptural light fixtures. Additionally, the upgrades were made with sustainability in mind: the building is LEED certified.
