Headquarters
Opened in June 2009, the CalSTRS headquarters building in West Sacramento is expected to meet members' needs through 2049. Growth in membership, the difference and complexity of the needs of a new generation of retiring teachers, and the need to operate more efficiently and sustainably led to the decision to build a new headquarters.
The building, a $266 million, 13-story office tower above two levels of public space, is part of the Sacramento Riverfront Master Plan.
