New Santa Monica Place
Architecture | 25.04.2008 | 2 Comments
Last 10 years Santa Monica Place has been my starting point when I go to Santa Monica which is at least once a month! I didn’t really care for the mall itself which is designed by Frank Gehry. The parking is attractive for me which is conveniently located adjacent to the Third Street Promenade. The mall is in the process of a make-over by retail developer Macerich that will re-open by 2009. After 25 years everything gets a make-over in Los Angeles…
You can find more renderings of the replacement here.
Why did Gehry not re-design the building? Any ideas?

I disagree, I really like the design… as far as malls go. Maybe it’s because I’m from the midwest, but that’s quite spectacular from my pov.

I’m a local mosaic artist, is there list for public art projects involved with Santa Monica Place? Or how do I apply?
Thanks For Help, Frank
