CLA Building, Futurist building at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, United States.

The CLA Building was the Classroom, Laboratory & Administration Building at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, designed by Albuquerque architect Antoine Predock in the Futurist style and completed in 1993. Its pointed, triangular, open-topped tower stood directly above the San Jose Hills fault. The administration portion was demolished in August 2022; the classroom and laboratory sections were to be renovated and returned to service.

Architect Antoine Predock designed the building in 1993 as a response to growing demand for modern learning spaces at the university. The project represented a significant step in updating the campus infrastructure.

The building encourages casual meetings between students and faculty through its network of connecting pathways and open gathering spaces. Different functional areas are arranged to bring people together in everyday interactions.

The tower stood directly above the San Jose Hills fault, and its administration portion was demolished in 2022; the Classroom and Laboratory wings are to be renovated and returned to service. The replacement Park at 98 opened in spring 2023 with three terraced levels totalling nearly 8,600 square feet of gathering space. A pointed seating wall built from sections of the demolished tower encircles the spot where it stood.

The building sat directly above the San Jose Hills fault and scored 72.94 on the California State University seismic risk scale, second only to Warren Hall at CSU East Bay. It leaked water from its completion in 1993, and its connections and beams fell short of state earthquake standards. The university won a $13.3 million settlement from the contractor.
