The landmark Gower Court Mausoleum, rising 100 feet above Hollywood Forever Cemetery, serves as a distinctive final resting place for 13,000 individuals. Built from poured-in-place concrete to support the weight of coffins, its large, cantilevered volumes extend over Gower Street, on axis with the Hollywood Sign, offering sweeping views of Los Angeles. The structure supports a mix of crypts and nooks for urns situated on five levels, each soaring 20 feet high. Open passageways invite light and air and create a serene, breezy atmosphere. Lushly planted balconies, courtyards, and terraced gardens extend 20 feet from the building, providing overlooks, generous seating, and a welcoming space for reflection and joy. Gower Court balances monumentality with openness, setting a new standard for vertical cemeteries.
