SANTA MONICA, CALIF. — Clarion Partners and Lincoln Property Co. have opened The Pen Factory, a 200,000-square-foot creative office project. The building is located at 2701 Olympic Blvd. in Santa Monica.
The property was originally built in 1957 as the Paper Mate plant. The adaptive-reuse project is now a creative office community that encourages a casual, open and flexible work environment for growing companies.
The new design separates space into two buildings with mezzanine levels. It features energy-efficient roofing and skylights along with industrially scaled curtain walls.
Morley Builders built the project, which Skidmore Owings & Merrill designed.
