For Sale
A Hollywood corner with multiple paths to value.
1602–1608 N Cahuenga BlvdOffered at $11,950,000
Built in 1926 and renovated in 2010, the property comprises 18,606 rentable square feet with ±190 feet of frontage at the northeast corner of Cahuenga and Selma. Four ground-floor spaces, a full creative-office floor, rooftop signage and alley access combine with existing tenancy and a 5,665 RSF second-generation restaurant and bar opportunity.
A buyer can occupy, re-tenant or reposition the available St. Felix and Powder Room premises while retaining the remaining income. Existing restaurant and bar equipment serving St. Felix and Tribute is included. Any future liquor-license benefit associated with Tribute would arise only after its current lease ends and remains subject to applicable transfer and licensing requirements.
Located within Hollywood's hotel and dining district, the property sits near Dream Hollywood, Blue Note, Bristol Farms and the future reopening of the Cinerama Dome. It is a century-old corner positioned for continued relevance as the surrounding district evolves.

Corner location, visibility, rooftop signage, alley access and existing hospitality infrastructure are the strategic value of the asset—not extras around a single-use building.
The building occupies the northeast corner of Cahuenga and Selma, with about 110 feet of frontage on Cahuenga and 80 feet on Selma. That geometry produces continuous visibility at the intersection. Two sign faces already sit on the roof. Alley access at the rear supports servicing without sacrificing the street.
The ground floor is existing hospitality infrastructure: rooms already built for restaurant, bar, café and gathering, with a full creative-office floor above. The sale includes the restaurant and bar equipment now serving St. Felix and Tribute. The St. Felix and Powder Room premises are marketed for lease; remaining tenancy continues to support the asset. Neither use is the ceiling of the position.
At the end of the current Tribute lease, the Tribute liquor-license benefit is expected to come with the property, subject to applicable transfer and licensing requirements. That is not an immediate transfer, and no license value is stated on this page.
Assemblage
1602–1608 N Cahuenga is a defined starting point on the east side of Cahuenga, inside the Hollywood Vinyl District. The surrounding fabric is a run of smaller parcels. Owning this intersection means owning the piece that organizes frontage, visibility and access for anything assembled beside or behind it.
Expanded frontage, greater site control and future development scale would require separately negotiated acquisitions. Adjacent parcels are not included in this offering. Assemblage or redevelopment is a path to evaluate, not a plan on offer. Zoning, entitlements, lot ties and structural capacity remain for a buyer and its advisors to determine.
Prospective purchasers should independently evaluate adjacent ownership, availability, zoning, entitlements and any assemblage strategy with their legal and technical advisors. This page does not assume those outcomes.
Existing tenancy supports the asset today. The 5,665 RSF St. Felix and Powder Room premises create a direct path to occupy, re-tenant or reposition the corner's defining hospitality space.
The available premises total 5,665 RSF: 4,016 RSF on the St. Felix ground floor, a 1,123 RSF mezzanine above 1602, and the 526 RSF Powder Room. Existing kitchen and bar infrastructure is in place, with documented 40-seat outdoor dining and bar service on EaCa Alley. The space is currently marketed for lease.
Cahuenga at Selma has an active mix of hospitality, food-and-beverage, entertainment, and creative-office users, plus one significant restaurant and bar opportunity marketed for lease. Together they reflect the building's role in the Vinyl District's daily and nighttime economy.

Neighborhood bar · Late-night 1608 N Cahuenga

Café 6371 Selma Ave

Creative office · Cultural institution 1604 N Cahuenga

Tenant-level lease materials are available to qualified parties through the confidential diligence process.
Two rooftop sign faces already occupy the intersection. Ownership has engaged Orange Barrel Media to replace the existing static signage with digital display faces. The proposed program would strengthen the corner's visibility along Cahuenga. It is proposed only: not approved, not contracted, and not included in the in-place income.

1604 N Cahuenga was Wally Heider Recording Studio, where Fleetwood Mac cut part of Rumours alongside sessions by the Beach Boys, Linda Ronstadt and Jimi Hendrix. Next door at 1608, Shelly Manne ran the Manne-Hole from 1960 to 1972, and a sidewalk plaque still marks it. Before either, the Cansino family taught dance in the building.
Music, performance and hospitality have paid rent on this corner through every Hollywood cycle in living memory.
The Vinyl District is the context that gives this corner its leverage: a compact circuit of hotels, dining, music and nightlife, with new capital landing on the same blocks. Control of Cahuenga and Selma is a position inside that district, not a bet on one operator.
A 25-year lease in the former Amoeba Records building, among the largest retail commitments in Hollywood in years.
Premium grocer anchoring the weekday, the daypart hospitality corners work hardest for.
A national jazz institution, four blocks from a corner whose own history is a recording studio and a jazz club.
Rail at walking distance, with up to 31,668 vehicles a day past the corner.
Cinerama Dome · 2028
Sony Pictures Entertainment and Alamo Drafthouse will restore and reopen the Cinerama Dome in early 2028, with the former ArcLight beside it reopening as a 14-screen Alamo Drafthouse. Three minutes on foot, and the largest returning generator of evening traffic in the district.

Why the walk matters
Cahuenga at Selma sits at the center of a compact Hollywood circuit: destination hotels and rooftops, independent restaurants, music and nightlife, studios, the Metro, and the returning Dome—all within a short walk. It captures a customer base that is both local and global, from nearby residents and creative-office users to hotel guests and the year-round visitor economy.
A corner built for the full day. Morning coffee, daytime meetings, dinner, late-night traffic, and the cultural calendar all overlap here. With new hospitality, retail, residential, and entertainment investment landing nearby, the corner benefits from the district's existing rhythm while participating in its next chapter.
A transparent NOI bridge: verified in-place economics today, then a buyer-controlled year-one and stabilized scenario for the 5,139 RSF St. Felix ground floor and mezzanine. The separate 526 RSF Powder Room remains part of the 5,665 RSF offering but is excluded from modeled rent. Forward cases are illustrative only — not a representation, projection, or statement of current property performance beyond the in-place totals shown.
