The Getty Center


The Getty Center, sometimes referred to as a campus, is comprised of six buildings: the Auditorium, North and East Buildings at the north and east sides, the Museum, Cafe and Research Institute on the south and western sides of the site. (See map on this official Getty Center site.) It is also sometimes called a modern "Acropolis" since it is spectacularly located on a 110-acre hilltop with a view south over Santa Monica and the basin of Los Angeles and west to the Pacific Ocean. Curvilinear forms extending from essentially rectilinear structures echo contours of the site as well as more distant elements--the San Diego freeway below or the Pacific Ocean. Because of height restrictions, much of the Getty Center is underground and the six buildings are linked to each other at basement levels.
