The C. Gaverick Apartments, 1958, Edward Killingsworth, FAIA. Perhaps no other midcentury architect elevated California Modernism to the level of elegance and grace as Long Beach's very own Edward Killingsworth. Killingsworth's contributions to John Entenza's Case Study Program conveyed a sophisticated grandeur missing from Modernism's more modest roots. This distinction propelled Killingsworth beyond single-family homes to projects that grew in size and scale, as he became known for designing grand residential buildings throughout Southern California and luxurious hotels in jet-set destinations like Hawaii, Japan, Malaysia, Guam, and Indonesia. The C. Gaverick Apartments, now a 12-unit condominium complex, is Killingsworth's sole beachfront multi-family project in Southern California. This remodeled two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse suite showcases Killingsworth's signature oversized floor-to-ceiling glass windows and provides sweeping ocean views from every room. Recent updates include refinished oak floors, upgraded appliances, refreshed bathrooms, central AC, and three generously improved skylights enhancing the indoor-outdoor connection. This rare, move-in-ready property is situated directly on the sand, with private beach access, and features an outdoor deck overlooking Alamitos Beach with expansive views extending to Catalina Island and unobstructed views up and down the bluff, even capturing the downtown skyline. Also included is covered parking for one car with a large lockable storage unit. Located adjacent to Bluff Park, with miles of coastal beach walking trails at your feet, this condominium is steps away from the best of Long Beach and Belmont.
