From UrbanizeLA: Nine months acquiring the historic Trust Building in Downtown Los Angeles to use as a satellite campus, UCLA is shedding light on what's coming to 433 S. Spring Street.
The 11-story building, which was the recently the subject of a head-to-toe restoration by Rising Realty Partners., was completed in 1928 as corporate offices, and features approximately 334,000 square feet of interior space. The initial 31 occupants of the property range from programs addressing climate change to those touching on employment, housing, immigration, public health, and criminal justice reform.

“We are thrilled that this initial cohort of programs will engage members of the local community, position UCLA as a trusted leader and collaborator in our global city, and have a positive impact that will be felt in downtown and far beyond,” said Chancellor Gene Block and Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Darnell Hunt in a written message to the UCLA campus.
The Trust Building is one of two major acquisitions made by UCLA in the 2023 calendar year. In December, the university capped off the year by closing on the shuttered Westside Pavilion mall, which will be converted into a cavernous research park housing the California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy at UCLA, the UCLA Center for Quantum Science and Engineering, and other programs.
