To the tune of Marlena Shaw’s “California Soul,” Australian mall developer Westfield released new renderings for its $800 million transformation of its Century City shopping center in a fly-through video posted to the company’s official website June 15.

Touting California modernism and the best of L.A. dining, the new expansion project will make room for more than 70 additional stores and restaurants inside a two-story, 1.2 million square foot mall, scheduled for completion in 2017.

Westfield Century City 2.0 will spotlight eight acres of outdoor space, more than 3,000 new jobs,  and double the current total parking spaces for 4,700 cars.

Among the 220 boutiques and eateries is the all-star lineup of Nordstrom’s three-level flagship store, a new two-level Macy’s, a remodeled three-level Bloomingdale’s and Mario Batali’s first West Coast Eataly.

The highly anticipated Italian grocery and food court Eataly, which is set to takeover Macy’s current location, will also have a rooftop beer and wine garden, according to Susan Bursk of the Century City Chamber of Commerce.

Other features of the Westfield expansion include the Terrace, a vibrant plaza for fashion shows and events, and the “soulful, intimate, organic, sublime” Century Lux Gardens.

International flagships and premium retailers are expected to transform the landscape of Century City even more, punctuated by new high-fashion, street side boutiques for many of the world’s most prestigious retail brands, spectacular restaurants, open-air cafés, chic event and entertainment spaces, five-star customer amenities, as well as the most innovative new digital technologies, according to Westfield’s official website.

The intersection of Santa Monica Blvd. and Avenue of the Stars has all ready seen construction to make way for Westfied’s expansion – the 12-story Gateway West office building is deconstructing floor by floor currently.
