Gallery Lofts | DTLA Arts District Live/Work Spaces
Explore authentic, open-concept industrial lofts, timeless character, and active MLS listings at the Gallery Lofts (120 & 130 S. Hewitt Street) with Downtown LA real estate specialist David Hernandez.
The Gallery Lofts complex stands as an absolute architectural gem and a premier example of authentic industrial adaptive-reuse living within the Downtown Los Angeles Arts District. Originally constructed in the early 20th century as a high-volume commercial manufacturing warehouse, this iconic structure was meticulously reimagined into an exclusive, limited collection of boutique live/work residences. Infused with the raw, creative canvas energy that defines the historical roots of the neighborhood, the property offers a sophisticated, low-density alternative to massive corporate high-rise developments, making it highly coveted by artists, designers, and creative entrepreneurs.
Residences within this landmark building feature true "hard loft" architectural signatures that are incredibly rare to find in newer construction: towering concrete ceilings, massive exposed original brick walls, thick structural utility columns, and large industrial multi-pane windows that wash the wide-open layouts in brilliant natural light. Supported by flexible live/work zoning, these expansive floor plans allow residents to seamlessly engineer a high-end personal residence combined with a functioning design studio, production office, or fine art showcase workspace.
