History

Construction of building was completed shortly before the 1926 Miami hurricane, which ended the early-1920s real estate boom in Miami.[2]

Film producer Louis B. Mayer owned the building from 1952 until his death in 1959.[3]

On January 4, 1989, the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places as the "City National Bank Building".

In 2012, the building was sold and renovated to become a boutique Langford Hotel.[4][5]
