No commercial real estate market in Los Angeles has transformed faster than Inglewood. SoFi Stadium, the Intuit Dome, the Hollywood Park development, and the K Line have poured billions of dollars of investment into a city that sits minutes from LAX and the 405. The result is a market where entertainment-driven demand, LAX-adjacent logistics, and a revitalizing downtown all compete for a limited supply of commercial space.
Lee & Associates West LA has been active in Inglewood through this transformation, including LAX-adjacent assets along the La Cienega corridor. We help tenants, owners, and investors position themselves in a commercial real estate in Inglewood market where the fundamentals are changing year by year.
Inglewood’s Commercial Real Estate Market
Inglewood’s commercial landscape is being reshaped by a few powerful forces.
The Hollywood Park and stadium district anchors the new Inglewood. SoFi Stadium and the Intuit Dome have created an entertainment and hospitality ecosystem that drives demand for restaurant, retail, hotel, and event-adjacent commercial space across the surrounding blocks.
The LAX-adjacent industrial corridor along La Cienega Boulevard, Century Boulevard, and the 405 serves air cargo, logistics, aviation services, and last-mile distribution. Proximity to the airport keeps this inventory in persistent demand.
Market Street and downtown Inglewood are experiencing a genuine revival, with the K Line connecting downtown Inglewood to the regional Metro system. Older retail and mixed-use buildings here are attracting operators and investors betting on the corridor’s trajectory.
The Manchester and Imperial corridors offer neighborhood retail, auto-related uses, and value-add commercial property serving the city’s residential core.
Who Leases Commercial Space in Inglewood
The Insider’s Guide To Leasing Commercial Space In Los Angeles (Free Guide)
Inglewood’s tenant base is diversifying quickly. Logistics, air cargo, and aviation service companies lease industrial space near LAX. Restaurants, hospitality groups, and entertainment-adjacent businesses are following the stadium crowds. Healthcare providers and community-serving organizations occupy office and retail space along the main corridors. Sports, media, and event production companies want proximity to the venues. And creative and small-business tenants priced out of Culver City and the Westside are finding Inglewood’s value proposition increasingly hard to ignore.

Property Types in Inglewood
Industrial and warehouse space clusters near LAX and the 405, typically 3,000-50,000 SF with grade-level loading. Air-cargo-adjacent buildings command premiums for location over specs.
Retail and restaurant space ranges from Market Street storefronts to pads and strip centers along Manchester, Century, and Prairie. Stadium-area retail has become one of the more competitive leasing environments in the region on event-driven foot traffic.
Office space is a smaller but growing category, with medical office and professional space serving the local base and new demand arriving with the entertainment district.
Investment and redevelopment properties are the headline story. Value-add retail, mixed-use, and industrial assets along the transit corridors have drawn sustained investor interest since the stadium broke ground, and the Intuit Dome has extended that runway.
Lease Terms and Pricing in Inglewood
The Insider’s Guide To Leasing Commercial Space In Los Angeles (Free Guide)
Inglewood pricing has climbed with the city’s profile but remains well below the Westside.
- Industrial and warehouse space typically ranges from $1.25 to $1.85/SF NNN, with LAX-adjacent product at the top of the range.
- Retail ranges roughly from $2.00 to $4.00/SF NNN depending on corridor, with stadium-adjacent and Market Street space commanding the premium.
- Office and medical office ranges from $2.00 to $3.00/SF depending on building quality and parking.
Retail and office leases typically run 3-5 years; industrial runs 5-10. In a market moving this fast, last year’s comps can mislead. Current, corridor-specific data is essential to negotiating well here.
