The Westwood (Linde) Medical Plaza, is a 12 story office building used for medical and dental procedures. Coined the “classic Modern-era style with a tall vertical mass of the building set against a long, horizontal mass.” Morris Linde was the head of the development and construction company that built the building. With other building design/construction collaborations, Linde and Williams, helped to change the face of Los Angeles County. Paul Williams was an African American architect who designed almost 2,000 homes in the Los Angeles area. He worked for wealthy celebrity clients, but also designed affordable homes, public housing, and civic, commercial, and institutional buildings. His works exhibit elegant composition and perfect proportion. Exterior view of the facade and east side of Westwood Medical Plaza.
