The University of Southern California today opened USC Village, a $700 million, 15-acre residential and retail complex that will house more than 2,500 students above a variety of dining and shopping options.

USC Village will serve as the LA 2028 Media Village, a key component of LA 2028’s ‘Main Press Center (MPC) cluster.’ The MPC cluster is anchored by USC’s brand new Annenberg Hall, a five-minute walk from the Media Village, offering members of the media unprecedented convenience, state-of-the-art workroom facilities, and onsite support and catering services. The media Transport Mall will be located within the secure perimeter of this MPC cluster, providing a ‘clean to clean’ experience for media moving between their housing, the MPC and IBC and other secured Olympic sites.

LA 2028’s use of the USC Village is consistent with the bid committee’s low-risk approach of utilizing existing and privately-funded facilities to deliver world-class, sustainable Games.

LA 2028 Vice Chair and Director of Athlete Relations Janet Evans said: "On behalf of LA 2028, I’d like to congratulate USC, my alma mater, as it celebrates the grand opening of the state-of-the-art USC Village. This world-class housing will serve as the LA 2028 Media Village, providing unparalleled convenience and comfort for journalists covering the Games."
