OVERVIEWoverview

As it has been since the early 20th century, Hollywood continues to be the entertainment capital of the world. In addition to its multi-tenant office base, Hollywood has a strong core composed of a major motion picture studio, independent studios, television stations, radio stations, laboratories, record companies, recording studios, post-production facilities, special effects and multi-media companies. These firms serve as the backbone of the Hollywood commercial real estate market. Because of the technical nature of their businesses, many of these firms have made long term commitments to the area, and have made substantial investments in their equipment and facilities.

Because the entertainment industry is spread throughout the Los Angeles region and has significant hubs in Santa monica, century city, culver city, West Hollywood, Hollywood and Burbank, Hollywood provides these firms with a strategic central location to serve other industry firms in the surrounding areas. Due to the proximity to the major studios in Burbank (ABc/Disney, Dreamworks and Warner Bros), Universal city (NBc/Universal), century city (fox) and culver city (Sony), Hollywood, home to Paramount, is the perfect central location for firms that conduct business with these major studios and draw their employees from throughout the Los Angeles area.
