Small flaking of the exterior key fob. History: Completed in 1906, the Hayward Hotel was one of Los Angeles' earliest highrises & one of its first major structures to be built with reinforced concrete. The Hayward was highly successful in its early years, owing to its prime location a stone's throw from the city's growing business center. in 1916, a one-story addition was built on top of the existing building, & ground broke the following year on a seven-story addition facing Spring Street. The Hayward completed its final major expansion in 1926 with the opening of an adjacent fourteen-story tower on Sixth Street. The Hayward was converted into apartment residences sometime after the Second World War. in 2008, Pacific Investments embarked upon an extensive renovation of the Hayward's facade & storefronts, which was closely followed by blogdowntown.
