This paper presents the implementation of site-specific analysis in observing the performance of a monumental building in Bengkulu City, Indonesia that is called the Lighthouse View Tower. This building was inaugurated in 2012. So far, it is still necessary to present the issue related to the performance of the building after 10 years. The objective of this study is to observe the performance of the building after the strong earthquake occurred. This study is first conducted by performing a site investigation. The information related to the soil profile; ground motion of the strong earthquake that occurred in Bengkulu City is collected. Furthermore, the site-specific response analysis is conducted on the site where the building stands. The results from site-specific response analysis, i.e. the actual spectral acceleration is obtained. The spectral acceleration is then used as the input parameter for finite element analysis to observe the performance of the building. The main goal of this study is to observe the structure health condition. The results show that during the strong earthquake, the structure of the view tower is still reliable and in good condition. Concern regarding the building maintenance should be emphasized. In general, the method implemented in this study could be used as the method to assess the performance of structures in other areas.
