PROJECT PROFILE

LPA, INC.

The travertine-clad building was designed by the world-renowned architect Henry N. Cobb of New York-based Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, with LPA as the associate architect. The high-rise includes nearly 330,000 square feet of floor area, with state-of-the-art conference centers, a grand lobby with a 28-foot ceiling, a modern fitness center and the 520 Marketplace—a curated collection offering coffee and fresh pastries. Floor-to-ceiling glass throughout provides sweeping views of the nearby Pacific Ocean. Two parking structures with a total of about 1,900 spaces serve the tenants.

Irvine Company teamed with Tesla Energy to outfit the building with advanced Tesla battery systems to substantially reduce peak energy demand and overall energy costs. The building is part of the world’s first fleet of Hybrid Electric Buildings. The project earned a LEED Gold certification.
