City National Tower

Los Angeles | Building

Something Missing?

As one of the nation’s largest high-rise office developments, City National Plaza (formerly ARCO Plaza) encompasses over 2.6 million square feet on a 4.2 acre super-block at 5th and Flower Streets in the central business district of downtown Los Angeles. Designed by noted Los Angeles architect Albert C. Martin Associates, the project was the first major business center in the heart of the financial district and has shaped the downtown Los Angeles skyline for over thirty years.

Completed in 1972 as the world headquarters for Atlantic Richfield Corporation, City National Plaza consists of two 52-story office towers, a three-story central plaza level building and four subterranean levels. Covered in polished panels of Vermont Green granite and solar bronze glass, the towers rise 700 feet above street level and establish a sophisticated environment for this centrally located business center. The main plaza is accentuated by its central fountain and the Herbert Bayer sculpture “Ascension” while lower level retail provides a variety of restaurants, shops, services and other amenities frequented by the projects’ tenants as well as those visiting, living and working in Downtown.
