More Burbank Collection Tenants
via Globe St...
The Burbank Collection, that city-block size, mixed-use residential/retail project bound by by Magnolia Boulevard, San Fernando Boulevard, Orange Grove Avenue and First Street has sold more than 60 percent of its 118 condo units, according to developer Champion Development Group of Los Angeles.
Four retailers Skechers USA Inc., Johnny Rockets restaurant, Café Venizie and Amuse Jewelry have sign leases at the complex.
The Burbank Collection is the second phase of a project called Burbank Entertainment Village, a $90 million urban infill mixed-use development. The first phase was developed by Kansas City, MO-based AMC Entertainment Inc. and completed in July 2003. It is anchored by a 16-screen AMC Megaplex with a Macaroni Grill, Chipotle Mexican Grill and Coldstone Creamery among the tenants that occupy the 30,000 sf of retail and restaurant space in phase one.
I recalled when that was AMC's parking lot -- in fact, I went out to movie there back in 2000, (the forgettable Bounce with Gwyneth Paltrow and Ben Affleck) and got stuck there for a couple hours when the battery on my old VW Jetta died and needed a jump from a good samaritan.
Now it's part of the Burbank Entertainment Village -- which some locals are still hating on during City Council meetings, nitpicking on traffic and arcane land use formulas that are the province fo the obsessed.
