Today, Craigslist brings word of an upcoming opening in Hancock Park's historic Chateau Rossmore. The 19-unit French art deco complex was designed by Milton J. Black in 1934, the same year the versatile architect designed the nearby Streamline Moderne Mauretania Apartments. Per the posting, the available apartment is a lower front unit (but "elevated almost a full floor above the ground") with one bedroom, one bath, living room, and a "small but formal dining room." Features include large steel casement windows on three sides, reclaimed hardwood floors, high ceilings, original deco tile, an elaborately carved decorative fireplace, crown molding, wainscoting, vintage cabinetry, built-ins, stove, and light fixtures. Monthly rent for the 950-square-foot unit, which comes with one subterranean parking space, is $2,495.
