The Airport Marina Hotel was an 800-room, first-class hotel located at the 8601 Lincoln Boulevard at the southwest corner of Manchester Avenue, in Westchester, Los Angeles, near Los Angeles International Airport. Its architect was Welton Becket; it was completed in December 1962 and opened in January 1963. At opening it had a shopping center with Joseph Magnin, a specialty department store, pharmacy, drugstore, bank and a 32-lane bowling alley.[1] [2] Hawaii-based Amfac bought the hotel (which by then had grown to 800 rooms) and shopping center leasehold in 1968 for $3.7 million and a share of future profits. Amfac started operating them in January 1969 under their Fred Harvey division. The hotel was later known as the Furama Hotel,[3] then (as of 2016) Custom Hotel.[4] The grounds are now the site of the Playa de Oro apartment complex (with ground floor retail), while the tower continues operating as a boutique hotel, the Hotel June (8639 Lincoln).[5]
