Halcyon City Centre

The heart of the downtown area, Halcyon City Center rises around Centennial Circle, a traffic circle where the city’s diagonal roads converge. Halcyon City Center is home to Valiant Plaza and governmental buildings, including the towering Powell Tower.

History
In the early 1960s, developer Raymond Norris leased a 97-acre plot in the middle of Halcyon City to build what was at that time the largest climate-controlled retail establishment in the world. He assembled a team of accomplished architects and designers who laid out the city center on an axis like a town.

When it opened in 1965 with its clean lines, attention to detail and elegant finishes, Halcyon City Centre’s international design and tenant mix forever changed the retail landscape in California and the West Coast.
