There are many open balconies and stairs at the Santa Barbara which allow the birds to fly around the interior spaces---check out a number of the interior lamps and you’ll find nesting birds.
Main Archway Ceiling
This project was made possible by a grant from the Pearl Chase Society. In 2009, over 4 months were spent restoring the main arch ceiling to the original condition. The project involved documenting existing conditions and then repainting the archway to restore the lost images that were damaged due to time and weather.
