Chateau Colline, Historic apartment building in Westwood, Los Angeles, United States.

Chateau Colline is an eight-unit apartment building on Wilshire Boulevard in Westwood, designed by Percy Parke Lewis and built in 1935. Leaded-glass windows, turrets and climbing vines give it the look of a castle. Inside are large wood-burning fireplaces with handcrafted mantels, bakelite intercoms, vaulted ceilings and outside nooks for milk bottles.

Chateau Colline was designed by architect Percy Parke Lewis and built in 1935 as an eight-unit apartment building on Wilshire Boulevard. In 2001 its owner applied to demolish it for a six-story condominium project; tenants, backed by the Los Angeles Conservancy and Councilman Jack Weiss, campaigned to save it. The City Council voted 14 to 0 to make it a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument (LAHCM #703) that year, and it joined the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.

The name Chateau Colline suits a building whose turrets, leaded-glass windows and climbing vines give it the look of a castle. The Los Angeles Times reported a rumour that Clark Gable and Bette Davis once lived there and held lavish parties in a second-storey apartment.

Chateau Colline stands on Wilshire Boulevard in Westwood, and its turrets, leaded-glass windows and climbing vines can be seen from the public sidewalk. The eight apartments are private residences, so visits are limited to the exterior. The building is a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument (LAHCM #703) and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.

In 2001 the owner sought a demolition permit for a six-storey condominium; tenants, backed by the Los Angeles Conservancy and Councilman Jack Weiss, pushed for monument status, and the City Council voted 14 to 0 to save the building. It was listed as LAHCM #703 that year and joined the National Register in 2003.
