Ambassador Hall of Administration is to be demolished
The old Ambassador Hall of Administration of the Pasadena Campus of the old Ambassador College is about to be destroyed:
DATE: July 22, 2015
Unique SFX Filming Opportunity – Ambassador Campus Pasadena, CA (July – September, 2015)
As part of a planned multi-year redevelopment of the former Ambassador College campus, the Hall of Administration is scheduled for controlled demolition between July and September, 2015. During preparation and throughout the demolition process, requests to film at this 4-story office building will be entertained on a case-by-case basis. This is a unique opportunity for production companies to film scenes which might require such scripted elements as: explosive pyrotechnics, controlled burns, interior simulated gunfire, vehicle crashes, demolition and/or other types of sfx and stunt sequences.
