The Lot Marketplace
University of Southern California, Los Angeles
The Lot was USC's awesome temporary dining complex from 2008-2010 while construction for the University's new Campus Center was being completed. Coined The Lot Marketplace, the 20,000 sq. ft. complex was built on a centrally located parking lot. The cutting-edge food court consisted of eight high-impact branded concepts, a convenience store and was host to weekly farmers markets. The distinctive structure accommodated up to 350 diners with another 140 seats made available on the outside patio.
