CBRE’s Amanda Calof, Pat McRoskey and Patti Gilbert represented the landlord, Entertainment Center, L.L.C., in the transaction. The tenant extended their lease term for an additional four years at 2000 Avenue of the Stars and Century Plaza Towers.
A CBRE report indicated that employee well-being alongside collaboration is important to occupiers when redesigning their space, and with more workers returning from office, it is essential to consider. Tenants in Century Park have access to a private fitness club, banks, pharmacies, dry cleaning, 160 EV charging stations and grooming services.
This transaction demonstrates CBRE’s ongoing focus on and the importance of premier office space, centralized location and tenant amenities. The Century City team continues to cultivate a community of global brands, industry leaders and innovative trailblazers that continue to recognize and value the importance of this strategic location and its multitude of conveniences.
