Hollywood Park: 300-Acre Village

LOS ANGELES—Hollywood Park is going to be a “300-acre village,” according to its developer, Wilson Meany. At Allen Matkins eighth annual View from Top conference, Wilson Meany’s co-founder and managing partner Christopher Meany and director of development Gregory Whitney talked about their vision for the project.

“Hollywood Park will be a principal entertainment zone with retail and open space that we think can touch almost everyone,” said Chris Meany. “We are creating a 300-acre village.” On the former site of the Hollywood Park racetrack, the project has 3,000 residential units, a 300-room hotel, 620,000 square feet of retail, a 120,000-square-foot casino, 25,000 square feet of office space and 10,000 square feet of community space. According to Meany, the site is large enough to house two Vatican Cities. The project broke ground in 2014, and Wilson Meany expects to deliver the massive mixed-use campus in 2023.
