WSL Headquarters Upgrades to Fancy New Digs in El Segundo
The World Surf League (WSL) headquarters has found a new home.
In late September, we reported the WSL was on the move after putting its former Santa Monica headquarters up for sale with a price tag of $14,150,000.
Business must be good because the new digs are quite an upgrade.
The Registry announced the move in the story above and captioned the post:
"World Surf League to Move to New 16,300 SQFT Headquarters in El Segundo."
According to the story, the WSL is moving into a 16,324-square-foot sublease at 2201 Rosecrans Avenue in El Segundo.
It sounds like it scored a prime location.
The Registry reported:
"With El Segundo fast becoming the epicenter of LA sports as major sports leagues and teams move to the area, the location aligns with WSL’s vision of building its platform as the global home of competitive surfing."
Michael Shuken of commercial real estate company Savills said:
“The WSL was also seeking to consolidate its two previous spaces and upgrade its office environment into a single unified workplace. We surveyed multiple options in the Los Angeles area and expanded our search into the South Bay. We located a state-of-the-art opportunity that checked all the boxes for the WSL in terms of size, quality of improvements, amenities, and parking. It’s also less than a five-minute drive to the beach.”
According to the building's website:
"Continental Park, located along Rosecrans Avenue in El Segundo CA., offers unrivaled Class “A” office space minutes from some of Southern California’s most pristine beaches. The area offers a wide variety of dining and retail options and is located just 10 minutes from Los Angeles International Airport."
In September, a WSL rep told Surfer:
"The WSL is relocating its HQ to a newly renovated space in the South Bay. The transition has begun, and the new space should be ready by the end of November."
