Project Overview

Considered the first phase of the New Performing Arts Complex project, the Wilshire Chiller Plant will be relocated adjacent to its original location to accommodate the future construction of the New Performing Arts Complex in its original building footprint. The facilities deliver temperature control to the buildings in its vicinity, including the Wilshire Center. The new facility will provide the same service to the current buildings in addition to the new Performing Arts Complex. The relocation of the infrastructure will be carried in coordination with the local utility, Southern California Edison (SCE).

Q2 2024 Project Update

Wilshire Chiller Plant Relocation

A commissioning kick-off meeting took place on May 29 gathering together all key parties on the project to coordinate the equipment submittal process for testing upon installation prior to project turnover to the campus. Contractor mobilization was completed in early June during which the trailer was set in position and crews placed site fencing around the perimeter of the site. The project is anticipated to be completed in May 2025.
