“We are excited to complete leasing at this high quality property in the heart of Beverly Hills with such a prestigious
company,” said William McMorrow, CEO of Kennedy Wilson. “Our ability to acquire this property off-market and take it from fully
vacant to fully leased once again demonstrates our focus on value-creation and converting non-income producing assets to positive
cash flow for the company.”
The 60,000 sq. ft. building was acquired fully vacant in 2013, after which Kennedy Wilson completed a full scale value-add
renovation totaling $26 million, including a remodel of the interior and exterior. The building is 100% owned by Kennedy Wilson and
located across the street from the Kennedy Wilson corporate headquarters, and includes tenants such as Imagine Entertainment,
Douglas Elliman, and Entertainment One.
