Commercial Scene : Security Pacific Project Rises in Santa Monica

Work has begun on the $30-million Security Pacific Courtyard, a 95,000-square-foot office building at the corner of Arizona and 4th Streets in Santa Monica.

The six-story building, sheathed in French limestone, is being developed by Los Angeles-based Search Builders Inc. It will have landscaped terraces, a two-story lobby, valet parking and a 312-car parking garage.

The project is designed by the Landau Partnership of Santa Monica, with Keller Construction handling contracting duties.

The Security Pacific branch that was formerly on the site has been temporarily relocated to the nearby corner of 4th Street and Broadway, and will be be the new project’s anchor tenant when the complex opens in September, 1990.
