An upgrade of $1bn is planned for the Radford Studio Center, a movie lot in Studio City that has been the set for many years of iconic television shows.
Radford Studio Center currently has 22 soundstages—18 of which are traditional—with its own mill for creating special effects and carpentry services, 210,000 square feet of production office space, a car wash, and a commissary. There is also a replica of a street in New York, a “Central Park,” and various kinds of residential neighborhoods with a range of architectural styles.
Hackman, based in Culver City, will be undertaking the renovations and additions. The plan calls for a new studio spanning 2.2 million square feet that will have 300,000 square feet of production support space and up to 25 sounds stages. There will also be 725,000 square feet of office space that will be used for the support of productions, and another 700,000 square feet of office space to be made available for rent to those in the entertainment industry.
A previously closed entrance at Carpenter Avenue off Ventura Boulevard that will be reopened. Tujunga Wash at Moorpark Street will have a new bridge, which will enable Radford Avue to become a through street.
Once completed, the new studio will add 400,000 people, which twice the number employed there now, and many of them may require business card printing services.
