This Santa Monica brick building is close to Silicon Beach and could be home to the Google or Snapchat, given its industrial and open-air look. Or it could be a tear down opportunity for an investor. It is close to all of the city's restaurants and entertainment options, as well as a short distance away from the 10 freeway and the forthcoming Expo station at 4th/Colorado.

Just by the looks of this building, it looks like it wasn’t built in 1987, though it was renovated in 2007, so that could explain a lot. The structure has immediate access to the 210 freeway. It’s also visible from the freeway, allowing for signage to be viewed with ease. It could be a nice purchase for a company wanting to have a campus-like atmosphere, much like Apple or Microsoft’s headquarters.
