Anderton Court Shops is a three-story commercial building on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and completed in 1952. Its geometric spire and unusual facade stand apart from the surrounding storefronts. A winding ramp connects the levels, giving you a closer look at the building’s open central form and a different view of the spire as you climb. It is a compact stop for architecture fans walking between Dayton Way and Brighton Way.
A Wright building on Rodeo Drive
Anderton Court Shops stands at 332 N Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, between Dayton Way and Brighton Way. Frank Lloyd Wright designed the three-story building, which was completed in 1952. It was his final built project in the Los Angeles area.
The building’s angular form and tall geometric spire give it a distinct profile among Rodeo Drive’s storefronts. Its commercial setting is part of the experience: the architecture sits directly along a street known for luxury shopping, rather than in a separate museum or gallery.
Follow the ramp
A winding ramp links the building’s levels, replacing the usual arrangement of stairs. Its route passes around an open central space, so walking upward gives you changing angles on the structure and a closer view of the spire.
The facade has an unusual texture that can look and feel like plywood. Take time to notice the surfaces and the way the ramp meets the building. Restoration work has also been noted at the site, so the details you can see may depend on work underway during your visit.
