The buildings · opened September 2021

A store and a sphere

The Saban Building is the 1939 streamline moderne May Company store, seven storeys, with its gold corner on Wilshire. Beside it a sphere holds the 1,000-seat David Geffen Theater, with the Dolby Family Terrace under a glass dome on its roof.

The buildings on screen are an invented homage, simplified and not to scale.
