This elegantly detailed office building is located in Newport Center adjacent to Fashion Island, The Fours Seasons Hotel and the Orange County Museum of Art. It overlooks the Newport Beach Country Club's golf course, with views to Newport Harbor, the Back Bay and Catalina Island. Designed in a classic California Mediterranean style, the building's arrival area is organized around a large octagonal landscaped auto court fronting a two-story arched lobby entry. Parking is achieved using a three-level garage nestled into the existing hillside. Over 40 private balconies located on the second, third and fourth levels take advantage of the coastal climate and provide dramatic ocean vistas. Expansive window glazing is maximized through the use of ten-foot high ceilings on the first and fourth floors.

Designed by McLarand Vasquez & Partners, Inc., an affiliated company.
