The Security First National Bank later merged with the Farmers and Merchants Bank in 1956 retaining its name. Housed in the former Security First National Bank Office Building, the Los Angeles Theatre Center is a five-theater arts complex in Downtown's historic Spring Street District. The Center is home to Will & Company, Moving Arts, and Playwrights Arena and presents a year-round offering of plays, music, and dance. Architect John Sergio Fisher supervised this mid-1980s renovation.
