Westfield London is a shopping centre in Shepherd's Bush in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. The centre was developed by the Westfield Group, run by Frank Lowy, at a cost of £, on a site bounded by the West Cross Route (A3220), the Westway (A40) and Wood Lane (A219), and opened on 30 October 2008. The site is part of the White City district, where several other large scale development projects are under way or in the planning stages. The development is on a large brownfield site part of which was once the location of the 1908 Franco-British Exhibition; the initial site clearance demolished the final set of halls still remaining from the exhibition (their cheap-to-build white-painted blank facades said to be the origin of the name "White City"). Much of the site was however in use by a railway depot, which remains, excavated to a lower level and built over. The centre is noted for its size: with a retail floor area of 150,000m² ( ft²), the equivalent of about 30 football pitches. At the time of its opening it was reported to be the third largest shopping centre in the United Kingdom. The nearest London Underground stations are Wood Lane, White City, Shepherd's Bush and Shepherd's Bush Market.
