Netflix will soon have a new Hollywood location on Sunset Boulevard after signing a lease for the currently under construction Epic office tower. Epic will provide 328,000 sf of Class A office space, all of which was recently leased by Netflix, over 13 stories across the street from space the company leases in Sunset Bronson Studios.

The office tower, which is targeting LEED Gold certification, will have 15-foot low-profile ceilings; a fitness center with showers, lockers and bike storage; electric car charging stations; 12-foot operable glass doors with direct access to outdoor terraces that provide plenty of work space; and a vehicle drop-off with a streetside lobby.

Epic is located one block west of the 101 Freeway and is walking distance to the LA Metro Redline, residential locations, restaurants, and retail stores. The Gensler-designed tower is slated for completion in January 2020. Hudson Pacific Properties is the developer.
