The National Register of Historic Places nomination document described the Warner Brothers Executive Office Building and its additions: "Two stories in height, the Executive Office Building is a long rectangular, wood-framed structure sheathed in stucco. Of Classical design, its dominant feature is a second story colonnade of Doric columns. A one-story addition was made on the west side of the building in the 1940s. A two-story addition was made to the east end [of] the building in 1965. The lawn between the building and the sidewalk along Sunset Boulevard is dotted with a variety of nonoriginal trees, including mature magnolias. A wide concrete walkway connects the main entrance to the sidewalk. A low brick wall defines the edge of the walkway and the sidewalk. A simple steel security fence, set back from the wall, was added in 2002. The building is substantially intact and in excellent condition."
