Roan Mountain is the highpoint of the Roan-Unaka Range of the Southern Appalachian Mountains, located in the Southeastern United States. The mountain is clad in a dense stand of Southern Appalachian spruce-fir forest, and includes the world's largest natural rhododendron garden, and the longest stretch of grassy bald in the Appalachian range.[2] The Cherokee National Forest and Pisgah National Forest converge atop the mountain, with Roan Mountain State Park located near its northern base. The Appalachian Trail crosses most of the Roan's crest. The Roan High Knob Shelter is the highest backcountry shelter on the entire 2,174-mile (3,499 km) trail.[3]
Roan Mountain comprises the greater part of the Roan Highlands, a 20-mile (32 km) massif stretching from Big Rock Creek in the west to U.S. Route 19 in the east. Most of this massif lies along the Tennessee-North Carolina border, between Carter County and Mitchell County. Yellow Mountain and Hump Mountain, on the northern tip of the massif, are part of the Roan Highlands but are generally not considered part of Roan Mountain proper.[4]
Roan Mountain contains five mountain peaks, and is roughly divided into two sections by Carver's Gap. The first section — composed of Roan High Bluff and Roan High Knob — lies west of Carver's Gap and is characterized by a thick coniferous forest. This part of Roan is shaped something like the body of a double-humped camel, with the "humps" being High Bluff and High Knob. Tollhouse Gap lies between the two peaks, and contains the Rhododendron Gardens, the largest of its kind in the world.
The second section of Roan Mountain — known as Grassy Ridge — is east of Carver's Gap, and is the longest stretch (appx. 7 miles) of grassy bald in the Appalachian Mountains.[5] A grassy bald is a type of highland meadow characterized by thick grass and sparse tree coverage.[6] The three peaks atop Grassy Ridge are Round Bald, Jane Bald, and Grassy Ridge Bald. The bald area spans the summits of all three, covering an area roughly equal to 1,000 acres (4 km²).[7]
The Appalachian Trail, after traversing Iron Mountain to the west, crosses Hughes Gap and ascends Roan's northern slope to Tollhouse Gap. From there, it makes a sharp turn to the east, crossing Roan High Knob, Carver's Gap, Grassy Ridge, and Yellow and Hump Mountains before descending to US-19 and the White Rocks Mountain area. From the slopes of Old Black in the Great Smoky Mountains, some 150 miles (240 km) to the south, to Mount Washington in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, some 1,500 miles (2,400 km) to the north, Roan Mountain is the only area where the trail rises above the 6,000-foot (1,800 m) mark.

The Delphi Hotel[2] is a 12-story hotel located at 550 S Flower St in Downtown Los Angeles in the marble-clad high-rise Superior Oil Company Building formerly the headquarters of the now defunct company, converted to The Standard Downtown LA hotel in 2002, then closed in 2020 and reopened in 2023 under its current name.[3]. The marble-clad Superior Oil Company Building was constructed from 1955–1956[4] as an office building by the Keck family[5] to serve as the headquarters for the Superior Oil Company.[6] Designed by Claud Beelman in the Late Moderne style, the 12-story structure was built by The William Simpson Construction Company.[7] The tower's design has been described as showing "how the oft-overlooked Beelman advanced the type and style of mid-century office buildings."[8] It was given distinctive marble, granite, and stainless-steel surfaces.[5] The building's design featured motifs particular to Superior Oil, including stylized "S" door pulls for the entrances and a bas-relief-style metal sculpture of an oilfield and refinery landscape above the Flower Street entrance interior. According to the Los Angeles Times, it became "one of the area's most significant examples of the postwar modernism style popular in corporate architecture during the 1950s."[5]
The LA Conservancy calls the building "one of the finest examples of the Corporate Moderne style in Los Angeles and stands out as one of the strongest designs of architect Claud Beelman’s later career."[7] The architecture represents a "simplified, abstracted redefinition" of Beelman's earlier explorations in the Late Moderne styles, also incorporating Modernist principles to "create a refined new corporate idiom." The building uses steel framing and a "pier and spandrel system" similar to those pioneered by Louis Sullivan. In a twist, however, the piers are clad in white marble and the recessed spandrels are ribbed stainless steel between window spaces, emphasizing the vertical nature of the architecture.[7]
In 1963, the building became the southern California headquarters of the Bank of California,[9] and for a time the building was called the Bank of California Building.[2] The building was vacated in 1992, after the Bank of California was merged into Union Bank of California.[5]. By 2000, local preservation groups were expressing worries that the vacant structure would be gutted and used as a telecommunications switching station, like other office buildings in the area. In January 2000, it was reported that the Union Bank of California had sold the building to William Gustafson and Mark Neumann's Columbia Development, "a Manhattan Beach-based hotel investment and development firm," for an undisclosed sum. With backing from local preservation groups, it was to be the "central city's first major new hotel in nearly a decade."[5]
Columbia Development Group, in partnership with Bear Stearns, JPMorgan Partners and Standard Holdings, converted the office building into a hotel operated by The Standard Hotels chain, run by Andre Balazs, which had opened its first boutique hotel in Hollywood in 1999.[4] The conversion was designed by Koning Eizenberg Architecture, Inc.[7][8] [4] and was constructed by Sam Martel of Taisei Construction. Christy McAvoy of Historical Resources Group was the historic preservation consultant.
The Standard Downtown LA opened in May 2002[10] as a 207-room boutique hotel,[11][6] with a rooftop pool and bar[8] with space for DJs[11] and pool parties,[11] a beer garden,[6][11] a ping pong club, a 24-hour coffee shop[6] and a lobby lounge. In 2011, Los Angeles Weekly included the building's rooftop restaurant as number 5 on its "Top 10 Restaurants in Buildings Designed by Significant Los Angeles Architects" list.[8] The pool on the roof has three "water-bed cabanas housed in plastic pods that resemble something out of a 1960s sci-fi movie."[12]
In 2003, the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places based on its architecture, particularly its moderne style and engineering.[2] Also in 2003, The Standard Hotel Downtown was awarded the Los Angeles Conservancy's preservation award, for "bringing a youthful buzz to a 1955 modernist skyscraper on Flower Street downtown."[13]
In 2009, the operator of the Standard Hotel was charged with dumping pool chemicals into the street below in a violation of federal environmental laws.[14] Standard Hotel pled guilty for the incident in 2010.[15] A shooting resulted in a death outside the hotel lobby in 2015.[16][17] In 2016, an injured bystander to the shootout sued the hotel, alleging insufficient security.[18] In May 2017, the food festival Smorgasburg LA debuted a popup residency at the Standard Hotel.[19][20]
The hotel closed temporarily in early 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In December 2021, it was announced that the closure would be permanent as of January 22, 2022.[21]. The hotel reopened on April 1, 2023[22] as the Delphi Hotel.[23]. The building entrance and exterior served as the fictional Brent Building in the television series Perry Mason (1957–1966) in which Mason's office[9] was located in Suite 904.
In the 1987 film RoboCop the building can be seen in the 6000 SUX car commercial.[citation needed]
Significant portions of the 2005 film Kiss Kiss Bang Bang were filmed outside the hotel and in the hotel's lobby, guest rooms, coffee shop, and rooftop bar/pool.[24]
The building was featured in the 2010 film Get Him to the Greek.
In the 2015 film San Andreas, the building collapsed during an earthquake.[citation needed]
The building was featured in the 2018 film Under the Silver Lake.
