The Ebell Club and Theatre was built in 1924 by Clark Philip/ CT McGrew. No expense was spared during its construction. It is an example of Churrigueresque architecture. Its lavish, sculpted facade style date back to Spanish architect Jose Churriguera (1650-1723) who developed the style that is characterized by play of light and shade through lush cement ornamentation. It was heavily damaged in the 1933 Long Beach earthquake, but was quickly repaired. In 2003 the Club was restored to its former elegance and served as a popular location for wedding receptions.

The Ebell Theatre was constructed as a 1000 plus seat theatre with both stage and screen. It was used commercially as a movie theater from the 1930's to the 1950's. It changed hands several times and was also known as "Holt's Ebell" and the "Metro Ebell". Construction to re-purpose the building to eleven new residential loft units began in 2003 and was completed in 2005 by JR Van Dijs. Each unit has a unique floor plan and units that range  in size from 1,200 to 2,277 square feet. Each unit has exterior space including balconies and roof decks with incredible views from the upper floor units.
