LA Kings - USC - Meyer Sports Rehabilitation Center








OVERVIEW
The second phase of expansion of the Toyota Center involved the conversion of the former Lakers player space and gym into a USC-Keck Treatment Center and new facilities for Meyer Sports, a Physical Therapy/Sports Therapy specialist organization. Additional area was converted for use by the Rink Management and new lockers provided for the Los Angeles Reign minor league club.  Pica and Sullivan completed the design for this phase of work in 2019.

DESIGN GOALS

The design focused on reconnecting business and sports operations within a shared facility while making room for expanded training and conditioning functions. The goal was to create an efficient, professional workplace that strengthens communication, reinforces organizational alignment, and supports the performance-driven culture of a major sports franchise.
KEY INTERVENTIONS

Pica + Sullivan Architects undertook the first phase of expansion, repurposing vacated space within the Toyota Sports Center after the Lakers relocated their full operation nearby. The reconfiguration allowed the Kings to return business operations to the center while also expanding areas dedicated to hockey training and conditioning.

"Sports facilities are evolving into places where performance, recovery, and medical care come together. Our work at the Toyota Center brought these functions into a cohesive environment, creating spaces that support athletes throughout every stage of training, treatment, and rehabilitation."
