Legislative Committee Approves Fast Pass for 8150 Sunset Project
The project by developer Townscape Partners is at the intersection of Sunset and Crescent Heights boulevards. It is within the City of Los Angeles and adjacent to West Hollywood. At a public meeting last September more than 100 residents turned out to air a wide range of grievances, including concerns over parking, rooftop sound, traffic, demolition of the Chase Bank building, which some see as historic, and the 16-story height of the apartment building along Havenhurst.
The project would include 249 apartment units in two buildings. One would be a 108-foot-high, nine-story apartment building along Crescent Heights. The second would be a 191-foot-high, 16-story apartment building along Havenhurst Drive. Also included are 111,000 square feet of commercial space, which would include restaurants, a grocery store, retail shops, fitness center and a bank.
