Tyra Banks to Open Supermodel-Themed Interactive Space and Restaurant in Santa Monica | Eater LA

"I've learned it's a 21,000-square-foot, supermodel-themed interactive, ticketed attraction at Santa Monica Place that will include an interactive space with a catwalk, a restaurant, and retail shops selling Modelland and other fashion merchandise. Tyra Banks says she wants to “bring modeling to the masses and expand the definition of beauty,” and she insists Modelland will be a permanent Westside addition with more locations planned. Inspired by childhood trips to Disneyland, Banks developed an entire model-filled storyline for the experience. It's slated to debut later this year, but there are few details available yet — questions remain about which section of Santa Monica Place it will occupy and what kind of menu the restaurant will offer." - Mona Holmes
