The Comstock is a hub of two, 20 story residential towers totaling 217 residential, high-rise units located at 865 and 875 Comstock Avenue.

The corner two-building cluster converted from lease-only apartments to a condominium community in 1977.

Location on the Wilshire Corridor

The Comstock (865 & 875 Comstock Avenue) is located on the north side of Wilshire Boulevard 90024, at the northwest corner of Comstock Avenue, approximately 1/4 mile east of Beverly Glen Boulevard.

For this page, the Wilshire Corridor is defined as the approximately 1.2-mile residential stretch of Wilshire Boulevard between Glendon Avenue and the western edge of the Los Angeles Country Club.

Architecture and Construction

Architect Victor Gruen designed the twin-tower Wilshire Comstock in 1961 as a modernist, vertical alternative to Los Angeles’s suburban sprawl. The strategic choice to build the towers with views of green spaces reminiscent of Central London is a signature trait of this architect.

The unique building footprint, set back from Wilshire Blvd, with the uphill entry driveway on Comstock Avenue, adds a touch of privacy and sophistication. The positioning, slightly up the hill, provides views of Holmby Park and the Los Angeles Country Club to the north, and south-facing units have elevated views of Century City and Downtown Los Angeles.

Tom’s Read

Perhaps one of the most undervalued assets on the Wilshire Corridor. Although the staff-to-owner/tenant ratio is not as high as in the Tier 1 buildings along the boulevard, the value presented by reasonable HOA fees and excellent access to Wilshire Boulevard and Holmby from the corner location should not be overlooked.
