Las Vegas City Hall Expansion and Garage
Las Vegas City Hall Expansion and Garage
Designed as the first step in a four-step masterplan, the expansion of Las Vegas City Hall (recently repurposed as the Zappos.com headquarters) consists of three buildings. A two-story office building interfaces elegantly with the architecture of the original 1971 office tower, wrapping around the base of the south facade. A continuous glass ribbon skylight allows the sun to reflect off the original travertine stone face and into the new work spaces. Public connections into the building are enhanced by a new public lobby and a glazed elevated walkway connecting to a new parking structure, also part of the project. A two-story Communications Center is designed around two television broadcast studios.
