Sierra Towers in West Hollywood

[last_updated_date]

Sierra Towers stands as one of LA's premier high-rise condominium buildings, situated off Sunset Strip on Doheny Road and offering unmatched views of ocean, Hollywood Hills mountains, and downtown skyline.

Over the years, this 31-story condo skyscraper has attracted many celebrity residents. Designed by Jack A. Charney - who trained under modern architects Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler - many famous faces have called this place home.

Location

Sierra Towers at 9255 Doheny Road in West Hollywood is one of its premier high-rise buildings, offering luxurious amenities including 24-hour services and concierge, gym access, an outdoor pool and spectacular views of Hollywood Hills, Century City and Pacific Ocean from every room in this skyscraper.

This 146-unit building has long been popular among celebrities and rock 'n' roll moguls, such as David Geffen, Sidney Poitier, Cher, Lindsay Lohan and Elton John - to name just a few! Its plural name derives from abandoned plans for another tower to be constructed here.

Jack Charney of Beverly Hills Contemporary Architecture Studio studied under Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler and designed this light-filled building, known as The Crags. Its sleek modern exterior boasts floor-to-ceiling windows with private terrace spaces. Inside is also built with crawlspace for owners to easily reroute plumbing and electrical systems for individual units within. Condos typically sell at prices that would rival houses elsewhere in Beverly Hills or Brentwood.

Amenities

Sierra Towers stands as an icon in West Hollywood's Sunset Strip, known for its chic high-rise buildings with floor-to-ceiling windows that maximize views.

This building's timeless mid-century modern design and discreet staff have long attracted A-list celebrities, such as Elton John and David Furnish, Joan Collins, Lindsay Lohan and Matthew Perry - but its popularity is at an all-time high: Courteney Cox and Sandra Bullock both sold their units; Garmin Heiress Jen Kao listed her double wide spread; while Meg Whitman listed her sixth floor pied-a-terre just recently on the market.

Residents pay high Home Owner Association (HOA) fees in order to enjoy 24/7 security, concierge services and an outdoor swimming pool with concierge.
