A Macy's occupied the site where the Hibiscus Apartments once existed until it closed in 2017.[2] This building was demolished in 2018 and a 21 story apartment building named The Laurel was built in its place. [3]The laurel opened in 2024.

It was located at 619 Hibiscus Street and on May 10, 1984, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
