Gateway West Building
Gateway West Building was a skyscraper in Century City, Los Angeles, California.
The Gateway West Building was located on the southwest corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and the Avenue of the Stars in Century City, a district in the city of Los Angeles.
Completed in 1963, Gateway West was the first building erected in Century City—an architectural plan that converted the back lot of 20th Century Fox into a modern neighbourhood with skyscrapers. Designed in the International Style by renowned architect Welton Becket (1902–1969), it was 13 stories tall and 173.56 feet (52.90 m) high and had a façade made of aluminum.
Gateway West's twin-sister building, Gateway East, was located directly across from it on Avenue of the Stars. Gateway East, was the second high-rise building completed in the new redevelopment. Gateway West was demolished in 2015 to make way for an expansion of Westfield Century City.
As the first high-rise building erected in Century City, this building represented the new style of the neighbourhood.
