Publisher's Synopsis
South Coast Plaza has become the largest mall of the West Coast and the mecca of upscale luxury retailing, attracting over 20 million people annually, who spend over $2 billion at the most successful planned retail center in the united States. The only rival to the Plaza's commercial success is its commitment to the arts, prospering as the OC's preeminent cultural center. Celebrating the momentous occasion of the 50th anniversary, the visionary founders of the South Coast Plaza take a retrospective moment of the phases of growth that have made SCP the commercial and cultural monolith it is today
