Great news! The Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously on November 25 to designate the Mendel and Mabel Meyer Courtyard Apartments as a Historic-Cultural Monument (HCM). 

Residents nominated the property for designation after the new owner revealed plans to demolish the building and construct townhouses.  The Cultural Heritage Commission unanimously voted to recommend its designation in September and the nomination received strong support from Councilmember Paul Koretz, in whose district the property is located.
