According to Design Principal Michael Perkocha, AIA of RPR Architects, the building was originally constructed in the 1950s, and remodeled in the 1970s. “The intent was to create a signature building for Alta Alliance Bank,” he said. “We wanted to give it a fresh contemporary look to attract customers and high-caliber employees.”
The exterior facade of the building features alternating stripes of black and Sand Beige dolomitic limestone - which was quarried in Indonesia - in a combination of bushhammered and split-faced finishes. The material was supplied by Im Ex Ware of Henderson, NV, and distributed by Dal-Tile Corp. of San Leandro, CA.
