Los Angeles Center Studios
Los Angeles Center Studios, located in the Westlake District of Los Angeles, California, is a multipurpose facility in the former Unocal Center building (opened as Union Oil Center in April 1958) next to the 110 Freeway. Architect William Pereira designed what was the headquarters of Union Oil Company of California. The studio itself was opened in 1999, three years after Union Oil Company of California vacated the premises. The complex now includes six film production sound stages and areas available as theatres or for events. It is located near W. 6th Street and Beaudry Avenue; the main gate's address is 450 South Bixel Street. Most film and TV production facilities in the Los Angeles region are located either in suburbs of the city (such as Hollywood itself) or adjacent cities like Burbank and Culver City; Los Angeles Center Studios is one of the only facilities actually located near downtown L.A. The Los Angeles Center Studios is where many films and shows have been filmed. The office building has played roles in several movies and TV shows: in Cold Case, as the Philadelphia Police Department; in Numb3rs as the Los Angeles FBI field office; in TNT's Legends it houses the FBI's "Deep Cover Operations" (DCO) unit; and in Life as the "Bank of Los Angeles" (with that title on the south face of the tower in huge letters). It is also the external facade of the hospital in the movie Constantine.
