Since its construction in 1929, the Bullocks Wilshire Building has been a proud part of Los Angeles history. It was designated as Los Angeles Cultural Monument #56 in 1969, and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1978. In 1999, it was selected as a project of "Save America's Treasures", a public-private partnership between the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the White House Millennium Council. Today, the Bullocks Wilshire Building is both a beloved iconic landmark for the city and a vibrant academic center for training future leaders of the community.

In 1994, Southwestern Law School purchased the landmark Bullocks Wilshire Building from the R.H. Macy Company- an event that marked the beginning of a new era for the law school and the building. Since then, the former department store has undergone extensive restoration and renovation, reclaiming its original art deco glamour in an adaptation that has created a stunning law library, a state-of-the-art courtroom, classrooms, offices and spectacular public rooms for a variety of functions.

Because it is part of the Southwestern Law School campus, the Bullocks Wilshire Building is not open to the public on a day-to-day basis. However, once a year, the building is open to the public for two special events.
