KFA Achitecture – Santa MonicaPresident’s Award In the late 1990’s, KFA helped to spark the resurgence of the historic core in downtown Los Angeles under the City of Los Angeles’ Adaptive Reuse Ordinance. The firm designed the first three buildings under this landmark ordinance in the Old Bank District, and have since rehabilitated over 40 historic buildings throughout the City. This award recognizes KFA’s critical role in the renaissance of downtown Los Angeles, honoring their experience in adaptive reuse of historic buildings and multi-family housing – both critical components of the Los Angeles adaptive reuse program. This year’s Preservation Design Awards recognizes two of the firm’s projects: the Commercial Exchange Building in Los Angeles and Evanston Court, a 24-unit condominium project in Pasadena. |
