CRE Awards 2020: Best Retail Project

2ND & PCH

Location: 6400 E. Pacific Coast Highway Long Beach

Developer: CenterCal Properties, LLC

Contractor: W.E. O’Neil Construction Co. of California

Architect: AO

Set on 11 acres, 2nd & PCH is a 220,000 square foot of open-air retail and dining destination overlooking the Long Beach Marina. Previously, this development used to sit an aging SeaPort Marina Hotel. This new retail lifestyle center is now open and inviting. It is decorated with curated art by Jasper Wong of Pow! Wow! The resort-like seating areas make for a relaxing experience. The center is anchored by 45,000 square-foot Whole Foods. Other tenants include Shake Shack, The Bungalow, Sephora, Free People, The Shade Store and Barry’s Bootcamp. There are two levels of shops and plenty of parking. Some energy efficiency components include:

• Energy-efficient windows, storefront glazing, featuring dual-paned low-e glass;

• Energy-efficient instantaneous water heaters. No water heater storage tanks on the project;

• Large photovoltaic panels that provided alternative energy sources as well as shaded parking on the rooftop of our parking structure;

• High energy efficient rated exterior facade that included thermal isolation break on the perimeter of the building; and

• 100% LED lighting and compact fluorescent lighting.

HOUSE OF BIJAN

Location: 443 N Rodeo Dr, Beverly Hills

Contractor: Shawmut Design and Construction

Architect: Pizzulli Associates, Inc.

House of Bijan — one of the oldest and most iconic luxury boutiques on Rodeo Drive — relocated just north of its original home, first opened in 1976. The new location — with more space to house the luxury brand’s products along with its headquarters — honors the longstanding Bijan vision and tradition while creating an updated and more contemporary space. Both the facade and interior walls boast House of Bijan’s trademark yellow, and iconic heritage elements from the original store — the entry door, grand chandelier, and antique armoires — were incorporated into the new location.
