This building is so cool, it has its own name. The Pacific Center building in downtown is my home away from home this summer (I'm clerking at a law firm in the building). It's wedged between Olive and Grand, faces Pershing Square, and stands out as a preserved work of artistic history among simplistic new era high rises (like the Ritz and Gas Co. buildings). A true gem. If the lobby looks familiar, it's probably because "The Informant" was filmed there. My co-worker even managed to snag a photo with Matt Damon in costume during filming!
