The Fantasy Factory, a skatepark and warehouse made famous by Rob Dyrdek’s MTV reality show “Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory,” closed in 2014 after seven seasons. The building was repurposed for other uses.
Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory was a reality television series that aired on MTV from February 2009 to March 2015. The show featured professional skateboarder Rob Dyrdek and his friends as they undertook various challenges and adventures within the confines of the Fantasy Factory. The Fantasy Factory itself was a converted warehouse located in Los Angeles, which included an indoor skate park, a foam pit, Dyrdek’s personal office, a “bat cave” for cars, and many other creative, business, and recreational spaces.
After the show ended, the Fantasy Factory was no longer needed for production. Rob Dyrdek decided to move on to other ventures, which included producing other television shows, investing in startups, and continuing his work with his skateboarding brand. The warehouse that housed the Fantasy Factory was transformed for other uses, which is common for production spaces after a show concludes. The legacy of the Fantasy Factory lives on in the memories of fans and the impact it had on popular culture, showcasing a blend of business, creativity, and extreme sports.
