Document Description
The Autry National Center proposes to renovate and modernize portions of its Griffith Park Campus located at 4700 Western Heritage Way, Los Angeles, in Council District 4. The Griffith Park Campus contains the Museum of the American West and the Institute for the Study of the American West. The proposed project would be implemented in two phases over an estimated six year period (anticipated to end in 2014) the key features of which are as follows: Phase 1: Expansion of the existing Campus Building by 79,000 sq. ft. to provide new and reconfigured galleries, exhibition and collection storage areas and education classrooms, and a new community room; rearrangement of the surface parking facilities; and pedestrian access and landscape improvements. Phase 2: construction of a 50,000 sq. ft. Institute Building that would contain a reading room, collection storage rooms, and staff offices; and construction of a semi-subterranean parking facility beneath the Institute Building. The parking improvements in both phases would result in a total of 476 spaces being available for visitors and staff.
