The new Century Corridor used to be LA’s best–kept business secret. Now
it’s emerging as one of the brightest business decisions in Los Angeles.
This is the last place you can still have it all. Fast airport and freeway ac-
cess. Plentiful off–LAX parking. A wealth of quality hotels and restaurants.
Easy access to beaches, entertainment and sports venues. Robust support
services. And one of the city’s safest settings.
You just made a smart move.
