LOS ANGELES | LOW-RISE / GENERAL Development News + Construction

Here’s hoping that most of the remaining highrises slated for the Arts District come to fruition. I was worried they’d all been killed by the pandemic but the rise of Alloy suggests there’s confidence in the area. And if Metro gets its act together re: the B/D subway extension to 6th Street, we’ll really be in business.

Centro Westlake

SOM and Studio MLA headline the Centro Westlake design team, and have developed a project featuring a mix of low-rise and high-rise structures. The height of the complex would be oriented toward the rear of the site, paring down through terrace decks toward MacArthur Park to the west. Plans call for a 44-story, 570-foot-tall building which would contain a hotel, housing, and commercial space toward Wilshire, and a 34-story, 448-foot-tall building with similar uses near 7th Street. Other structures would range from two to six stories in height and include commercial space, offices, a food court, and a dog park.

It will be interesting to see if this gets built. MacArthur Park has a very bad reputation due to very high levels of crime and drugs.

Parking for roughly 1,900 vehicles would be located in a subterranean structure.

What is up with that hanging gardens thing? The whole thing will probably end up looking more like the Capitol Records Building.
