The Beverly Hills Civic Center is a landmark building serving as a civic center in Beverly Hills, California.

The Beverly Hills Civic Center stands at 455 North Rexford Drive in Beverly Hills, California.^[1]

In 1982, as the adjacent Beverly Hills City Hall was being renovated, the project to build this civic center was put forward.^[2]

The building was designed by Charles Moore (1925-1993).^[1][2][3][4] Drawing upon the Spanish Revival architecture of the city hall, Moore designed this building in a mixture of Spanish Revival, Art Deco and Post-Modern styles. It includes courtyards, colonnades, promenades, and buildings, with both open and semi-enclosed spaces, stairways and balconies.^[1] It was completed in 1990.^[2]

As part of the Beverly Hills Centennial Arts of Palm Installation in 2014, the Palm Court of the Civic Center displayed a temporary mosaic mural by R. Kenton Nelson and an art piece by Michael C. McMillen.^[5]
