Real Estate Appraisers and Appraisals In
Los Angeles County, City of Century City
An important business
center, and many law firms and executive particularly those with ties to the
film, television, and music industries have offices there. Its Westfield-owned
shopping mall is a major retail center. Century City is one of the original
edge cities in the country, once backlot of 20th Century Fox, which still has
its headquarters just to the south, the Fox studio commissioned a master-plan
development from Welton Becket Associates, which was unveiled at a major press
event on the "western" backlot in 1957. In 1963 the first building,
Century City Gateway West, was complete, followed the next year by an appraisal
of Minoru Yamasaki's Century Plaza Hotel. It was originally planned to be
accessible by the Beverly Hills Freeway on a rapid transit corridor however
neither of these transportation improvements came to pass, and so Century City
is a source of traffic irritation for the residents of Cheviot Hills to the
south, since there is no direct freeway access to the center. It is likely that
any westward extension of the Los Angeles MTA's Metro Purple Line subway will
include a stop at Century City. |
