Makeover complete at L.A. area center
A formerly troubled center in an affluent community south of Los Angeles has capped off an 18-month, $17 million renovation. Just two years ago, The Vestar-owned Peninsula Center in Rolling Hills Estates was plagued by several vacancies and an image not in keeping with standards in the community, which has a median household income of $144,000. Today Orchard Supply Hardware and Ulta Beauty occupy the made-over center, along with new dining options Chipotle and The Habit Burger Grill.
