Notes
  • Significance: The Olive Tower is a fourteen story modernistic apartment house, simply executed in a cream colored stucco finish with ivory colored terra cotta trim. Its vertical emphasis and Gothic treatment of upper stories are most illustrative of the Modernistic style. / Steel frame construction with reinforced concrete. Strong vertical emphasis of the facade; Wa-Co face brick at top of building; decorative frieze of medallions beneath Tudor arches at base. Entry has interesting tile and panels in Tudor style. Otherwise, interior has little or no ornament. Presently deteriorated; apartments.
  • Survey number: HABS WA-167
