Building History. In 1988 two of the pioneering Arts District developers (Seemayer & Peterson) obtained a Certificate of Occupancy for 5 Artist-In-Residence units after converting this originally 1920 built church into a creative artist loft. In 2001 they sold it to the current owner who made improvements to the property and over the years made it his residence while renting the premises out for hundreds of shoots for TV, film, and music videos. In 2025 the owner installed a new white, cool roof outer membrane. The property has no long term leases and can be delivered vacant.

The zone [MB2-SH1-5] [IX1-FA] [CPIO] allows for a variety of

Freezer Cooler Food Processing Building Listings For Lease Sale Los Angeles Area

Leave a comment

Southern California has a large inventory of refrigerated and frozen industrial warehouses. Cold storage operators have high cube freezer and cooler spaces while food processing companies need buildings with not only freezers and coolers but also with food production rooms that have sloped floors and floor drains for wash downs of meat, seafood, poultry, meals, or produce. These food facilities generally require a large grease trap known as a clarifier or waste interceptor to manage liquid discharge into the sewer.

Other features include gas lines and food certifications such as USDA, SQF, and BRC. FDA registration is required for businesses involved in interstate commerce, including those shipping food across state lines. However, in addition to FDA registration, California law requires food businesses to obtain a Processed Food Registration (PFR) from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) for manufacturing, processing, storing, or distributing food products within the state. Often a food processing permit from the local county health department is also required.

See below available listings of food buildings for sale or sale the Los Angeles area of Southern California. The cities of LA, Vernon, Commerce, and Industry have many industrial food facilities.

Market Trends & Indicators

The Decline of Film Production in Los Angeles

Leave a comment

In the past 5 years Los Angeles investors and developers have pushed forward with both under-construction and planned developments of film studios and sound stages. It made some sense given the lack of vacancy in the booming streaming years. But since the SAG-AFTRA strike all bets are off for demand for film production. See above chart showing declining demand for film production of features and TV.

We could see some of the planned projects get shelved by cautious investors, or if they do build and demand doesn’t bounce back they could get burned. Only time will tell. And even if demand rebounds that doesn’t mean it will stay in LA as inter-state competition is hot along with Canada and other countries per the Hollywood Reporter article.
