The Los Angeles-Riverside region is booming, with big numbers in multi-family construction; a new mass transit project, the $834 million Regional Connector Transit Corridor light rail; $579 million in modernization and upgrades at the Port of Long Beach; warehousing expansion in Riverside County to store and distribute projects flowing through Long Beach from the Pacific Rim; the $508 million renovation of Terminal 1 at Los Angeles International Airport; and a $1.1 billion expansion on the University of Southern California’s campus.
But the San Francisco Bay Area/Silicon Valley is tops in the Golden State right now due in large part to a massive hiring surge among tech firms, extremely low office vacancy rates and a billion-dollar renovation of the Chevron refinery in Richmond, Calif. Seattle’s skyline will have a new look when Amazon completes its new downtown office towers; Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is looking at a billion-dollar renovation; and Boeing recently broke ground on a new wing factory.
