Developed in 1991 by South Figueroa Plaza Associates as Citicorp Plaza,[6] the building contains approximately 1,025,000 sq ft (95,200 m2) and a three-story Italian marble lobby. The exterior is clad with sculpted white metal and glass. The tower is adjacent to the 7+Fig Shopping Center (originally “Seventh Market Place” including Bullock's and May Co. department store branches) and was purchased from Maguire Properties by owner, Brookfield Office Properties.[7][8] A shot of the tower under construction can be seen looking from 12th street in the 1989 comedy Police Academy 6: City Under Siege.
