The new 13-story General Petroleum Building at 612 South Flower street is the largest office building in Southern California. Completed last month at a cost of $11,00,000, it is now in operation. Eight floors are occupied by home office of the corporation. Other floors are taken by 45 other companies. Designed in the Late Moderne style of the postwar period, with ceramic veneer exterior by Gladding, McBean & Co., the General Petroleum Building was built for $8,000,000 and was one of the first skyscrapers to employ a modular system throughout the entire structure. Aluminum fin sunshades from 3rd to 13th floor. Wurdeman & Becket also designed all interior details including furnishings, color schemes & fixtures. It was built between 1947-1949.
