Non-notable apartment complex. Google search yields a bunch of hits corroborating this place's existence, but all those hits are to apartment review sites or building/architecture sites. A secondary concern is that there are claims that this was the largest HUD renewal project in the western U.S., but none of the Ghits corroborate this. It also claims the complex was developed by one Louis Lesser in conjunction with U.S. President John F. Kennedy. While I don't doubt that it was developed by Mr. Lesser or his company (which was somewhat shown to me by the author in a separate discussion; more on that later), Kennedy was assassinated two years before HUD was established, so how could the two have worked together on a HUD project? Delete all the content of questionable verifiability, and we're left with "Barrington Plaza is an apartment complex in Los Angeles developed by Lesser Enterprises." I highly doubt that that would satisfy WP:N.
