Movie Studios

The Baruch Corporation did a variety of general construction for several movie studios during a time when 90% of the world's motion pictures were made in Los Angeles.  For Paramount Pictures the company built five buildings, including one housing administrative offices just inside the Lasky-Famous Players gate.
