Aerial view of the Campbell Apartments at 130 Linden Avenue, an eleven-story Spanish Renaissance building that provided deluxe apartments with hotel service. Scroll and swag decorations begin at the second floor and pyramid up to the fourth. An ornamental balcony is on the ninth floor. The central entrance is bell-cast in shape and flanked by windows on each side. Oil derricks crowd the horizon from right to left.The Campbell Apartments were built by Reginald Campbell in 1928. He bought the Lafayette Hotel next door in order to protect the apartments. Currently both buildings, as well as the Lafayette addition, are part of the Lafayette Complex and have been declared Long Beach Historic Landmark 16.52.270. The architects were Parker O. Wright and Francis H. Gentry.
