The Perkins Building under construction at 22508 W. 6th Street, Newhall, from February to May 1956.

Real estate developer-historian-writer Arthur Buckingham "A.B." Perkins maintained his own office in the building and leased the balance to The Signal newspaper, which occupied it until 1986 when the paper moved to a new plant at 24000 Creekside Road, Valencia, where it installed a big Goss Urbanite printing press.

The Perkins Bulding, aka Perkins Court, is actually a series of office spaces, as shown here, arranged in a "U" configuration with an inner courtyard-walkway. The wood exteriors were painted brick red; thus the nickname, "red Signal buildings." The Signal's front office was the space fronting 6th Street at left (east).
