Story Project History Originally, Lockheed Aircraft Company started business here in 1928. There was also a glass factory (Mission Glass) with whom Lockheed shared a building until Lockheed took over that portion as well. Before WWII, this plant produced most of Lockheed's Orion’s, Vegas, and Hudson’s. An oil and gravel airstrip constructed on the southern end of the property during this pre-war period was in use until 1941 when the P-38 went into production. During WWII, this strip was used as a parking lot and apparently never used again for its original purpose. The plant was closed in 1991, and by 1994, razed and developed into Burbank Empire Center. Less than eight months after breaking ground, the Burbank Empire Center's first stores opened in October 2001. The outdoor mall's buildings hark back to Lockheed's glory days by resembling manufacturing plants. Each of the outdoor signs features a replica of a Lockheed aircraft, while the mall design brings to mind an airport, complete with a miniature control tower. The theme is carried throughout the center with bollards that resemble rivets, graphics of tools incorporated in the ceramic tile art benches and signs in the food court area. Peter Shire’s “Tiki Towers” are three colorful and whimsical towers exhibiting flight themes and period icons: they are integrated into the hardscape in the food court area. Tile accents in the tile benches and graphics reflect workers in the aerospace industry. His “Empire Plane”, metal cutout planese art tops the pylons signs.
