Chiat-Day Building

Four-story high binoculars

340 Main St
Los Angeles, CA 90291

This is without a doubt one of the most eye-catching buildings in Los Angeles. A four-story pair of binoculars, which can be seen for blocks, highlights the entrance of this advertising agency's headquarters. In addition to this 1991 Frank Gehry design, the building also features a boat-shaped wing and a vaguely tree-shaped structure. The binoculars themselves house two conference rooms, with the eyepieces serving as skylights. The company does not currently offer tours.
