Studies - Moore Ruble Yudell Architects & Planners
A recent master plan for the Santa Monica Civic Center designates a new entrance to the renovated historic district that includes City Hall, the Court, and the new Public Safety Building. A new park, designed by Moore Ruble Yudell Architects & Planners (MRY), is now an integral part of the quadrant of civic buildings. Visually box connects the various buildings.
One challenge was to "create architec ra from a common building, which usually is not associated with high standards of design, "says Principal MRY by James Mary O'Connor, AIA. "The property offers an unforgettable arrival point and gateway to the Civic Center." The project also exemplifies the commitment of the city for sustainable design as it would be one of the first parking structures in the U.S. to achieve procurement LEED certification.
The design brings a fresh perspective to a service building, the 298,786 square foot structure includes 900 parking spaces on six levels above ground level and two degrees below it, and strengthens the urban fabric shops at street level, cafes, spectacular ocean views and the city, a garden, and a sense of personal safety.
