Exposition Park enjoys a rich history. It was originally created in 1872 as an agricultural park, and 148 acres were set aside for the Southern District Agricultural Society. In 1913, it was renamed Exposition Park according to the “City Beautiful” movement with 4 anchor tenants: California Museum of Science and Industry (Exposition Building), National Armory, Domed National History Museum, and the Sunken Garden (which in 1928 was later renamed the Rose Garden).

Originally founded as an Agricultural Park in 1872 and subsequently renamed Exposition Park in 1910, the park has become one of Southern California’s premiere visitor destinations. It is home to the Memorial Coliseum and the Olympic Swim Stadium, major venues for the 1932 and 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

Culver City has become a hub for the biggest technology, media, and content creation companies in the world and continues to benefit from the surge in high-wage employees and residents. Centrally located, Culver City offers an energetic environment and an exceptional quality of life. The area has undergone an unprecedented transformation with restaurants and trendy boutiques. Culver City’s unique combination of small-town charm and urban amenities makes it a great place to live, work, and play.

Culver City is currently in the midst of a massive transformation driven by 4.5 million square feet of under-construction or recently completed projects. This is complemented by luxury multi-family as well as retail and public spaces to meet the needs of the market’s growing and affluent demographics. There are over 3,000 multi-family units currently under construction or proposed in the Culver City area that will draw thousands of residents.
