Wells Fargo Plaza

Wells Fargo Plaza is an office tower with 25 floors at 1201 Pacific Avenue, distinguished by its steel frame structure with concrete slabs and reddish-brown granite facade. The building houses multiple corporate offices and business spaces serving various companies in the downtown area.

The building was designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in 1970 during a period of significant urban development in the business district. Its construction represented modern commercial architecture of that era.

The building represents the architectural trends of the early 1970s through its combination of modern materials and classical design principles in commercial architecture.

The building sits on a major thoroughfare with direct access to public transportation and is easy to reach. The interior Halo area offers restaurants, bars, and bicycle storage for visitors and workers.

The building underwent a major renovation in 2018 and received a new interior atrium space called Halo featuring restaurants, bars, and fitness facilities. This transformation significantly updated the interior experience for workers and visitors.
