Restoration of the Iconic California Saban Building Begins
Western Specialty Contractors branches in Los Angeles and Seattle are teaming up on a project to restore the historic Saban Building (formerly May Company department store) in Los Angeles — the future home of the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. Western crews are working alongside renowned historic preservation consultant John Fidler, the New York Pritzker-Prize winning architect Renzo Piano with Renzo Piano Building Workshop and Gensler, the general contractor Matt Construction of Los Angeles and the owner's representative Paratus Group of New York, N.Y.
"We work with a lot of great consultants, architects and general contractors, but it's not every day that we get to work with the country's leading authorities on historic preservation on such a prestigious project," said Western's Seattle Branch Manager Dave Kimble. "We are so honored and excited to have been given the opportunity to work with such a talented team of experts."
