Built in 1946, the small, walk-up stand has been noted as a prime example of “mimetic”-type novelty architecture. It was one of the very last surviving mid-20th century buildings that were built in the shapes of the products they sold.[1] HistoryDesigned by architect Milton Black, the stand opened at La Cienega and Beverly boulevards in June 1946 to luminary-studded, searchlight-lit fanfare. Eddie Blake purchased the Pup in the early 1970s from its celebrity owners, the dance team of Veloz and Yolanda.[2] Despite its appearance in countless movies, television programs[3] and commercials, the stand faced demolition in the mid-1980s, creating an outcry that resulted in the stand being moved a couple of blocks from its original location at 311 North La Cienega Boulevard to 329 North San Vicente Boulevard. In December 2005, the Pup was evicted and it moved into a Torrance warehouse after Regent Properties, a development company, purchased the Pup's site from landlord Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, and announced plans to build 152 condominium and apartment units. As of December 2012, construction had not started and the site remained a parking lot.[2] Owners Dennis and Eddie Blake plan to reopen the Tail O' the Pup once a suitable location is found, possibly in West Hollywood.[2] The city of Los Angeles has since declared Tail O’ the Pup to be a cultural landmark.{{citation needed|date=June 2015}} See also{{Portal|Food|1970s|1980s|1990s|2000s}}
