The Ziggurat is a ten-story, stepped pyramidal office building and adjacent five-story concrete parking structure located at 707 3rd Street in West Sacramento, California, on the shore of the Sacramento River. Designed by Sacramento architect Edwin Kado[1] to resemble the ancient Mesopotamian ziggurats, the building was built by The Money Store in 1997. Since 2001 it has been leased by the California Department of General Services (DGS) as its headquarters.[2]
Located on more than 7 acres (28,000 m2) adjacent to the Tower Bridge, the unusually designed office building contains more than 373,725 square feet (35,000 m2) of usable office area.[3]
