County Seat May Get Tallest Building Here

SANTA ANA, CA-The approval process is under way on developing a 37-story tower that would house mostly office users, with a minimum of other commercial uses.

SANTA ANA, CA-Manhattan has nothing to worry about, but this city, the seat of county government, also may become home to the county’s tallest high-rise building, which will be 493 ft. tall and total 550,000 sf of space.

If the 37-story, One Broadway Plaza building proposed by developer Michael Harrah, president of Santa Ana-based Caribou Industries, gets necessary approvals, construction on the project could begin as early as this summer, although the developer doesn’t expect to break ground until 2002.

Downsized from its original 38- to 44-story concept, the structure when completed would consist of 90% office space, with a restaurant on the penthouse level and commercial space on the ground floor suitable for ancillary services. Parking will be provided by an adjacent eight-level parking structure, says Charles View, downtown development manager for the city.
