MEIS, with Woods Bagot, provided professional design services related to five priority projects and their associated areas within the existing Santa Anita Park facility. It is the goal of the Client to grow its business, increase revenue generation and improve the overall fan experience by focusing on both short-term and long-term plans while furthering the venue’s already historical relationship with horse racing and the greater Los Angeles community. Our services included the following key spaces:

The Chandelier Room – Renovation of the existing space into a high-end social club;                                  

Main Event Room – Development of the existing space into a permanent home for large events like Breeders Cup;

Private Boxes/Suites – Review of the existing layout of box seats and analysis of sales options;

Executive Meeting Room – Creation of a new space in the venue that can be used to entertain; and
