Hollywood Park Land Co. to Build Sports, Entertainment Complex in LA

by Nellie Day January 7, 2015

LOS ANGELES — Hollywood Park Land Company has announced plans to develop a new sports and entertainment district in the Los Angeles submarket of Inglewood. The development is named the “City of Champions Revitalization Project.” The new development “builds on the momentum of the original 238-acre, mixed-use project currently under construction at Hollywood Park after years of community engagement and the approval of entitlements by the Inglewood City Council in 2009,” according to a statement from the land company. Hollywood Park Land Co. is a joint venture between Stockbridge Capital Group and the Kroenke Group (TKG). Stockbridge purchased the original 238-acre Hollywood Park site in 2005. The Kroenke Group purchased an adjacent 60-acre parcel in 2013. The two then joined forces through the Hollywood Park Land Co. venture in 2014 to develop the project. The 298-acre project will include a stadium of up to 80,000 seats and a performance venue of up to 6,000 seats. It will also reconfigure the previously approved Hollywood Park plan that called for up to 890,000 square feet of retail, 780,000 square feet of office space, 2,500 new residential units, a 300-room hotel, and 25 acres of public parks, playgrounds, open space, and pedestrian and …

OC Office Market Recovers

by Nellie Day January 6, 2015

The Orange County office market continues to experience steady growth as it moves into 2015, with three straight years of positive net absorption under its belt. The county’s unemployment rate has dropped to 5.4 percent over the past 12 months, while the job growth rate has averaged 1.8 percent over the same period. The overall signs for the office market are very positive as we head into the growth phase of this real estate cycle. Orange County’s office market has experienced almost 1.7 million square feet of net absorption in the past 12 months, according to CoStar. This net absorption has been spread out evenly over Class A and B properties. The current vacancy rate of 11.4 percent has steadily declined on an average of 1 percent per year for the past four years. Based on current absorption trends, the office vacancy could dip below 10 percent in 2016, which may usher in significant speculative development. The majority of the tenant activity is home grown, with limited growth from companies outside of Orange County. Net absorption is mainly due to recent larger space transactions. These occupiers include Pacific Investment Management absorbing 380,000 square feet, Belkin International (128,000 square feet), Yokohama …

by Nellie Day December 23, 2014

It’s no secret that with the abundance of developable land, affordable housing, and close proximity to the ports and major freeways, the Inland Empire has a tremendous advantage in relation to other Western markets. The Inland Empire industrial market has experienced a transactional volume of 120 deals for 100,000 square feet or more, as of this past November. There are also more than 30 buildings under construction, which total more than 15 million square feet. Developers have been quick to respond to demand, with about 15.5 million square feet of construction completed in the Inland Empire to date, thanks to Fortune 500 retailers and third-party logistics (3PL) firms nabbing large space within the market due to an improving economy. With another 15 million square feet currently under construction, the Inland Empire’s industrial base will foreseeably increase by 10 percent by the end of 2016. Assuming the current state of economic growth continues, the Inland Empire industrial market is expected to finish 2014 strong, with positive market activity poised to continue well into 2015 and 2016. The industrial demand in the Inland Empire is closely associated to international trade and continues to attract large distributors, warehouses, e-commerce companies and logistics firms …
