Project Description:  The Project involves the development of a 30-story mixed-use building consisting of 107 residential units (comprising an estimated 137,347 square feet), 7,200 square feet of ground level commercial retail uses, and 534,044 square feet of office uses in Downtown Los Angeles.  The 2.71‑acre Project Site, which is bounded by South Broadway on the west, West 2nd Street on the north, and South Spring Street on the east, is the future site of the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority Regional Connector 2nd Street/Broadway rail station and portal.  The 2nd Street/​Broadway rail station will be below grade, with a station portal at the northwest corner of the site at 2nd Street and Broadway.  The Metro station and portal are currently under construction.  Overall, the Project’s improvements (plus the Metro portal) would comprise a total of 688,401 square feet of floor area and replace a surface parking lot located on the northern portion of the Project Site.  An existing five-story parking structure is located on the southern portion of the Project Site and would remain and be reconfigured to provide required automobile and long-term bicycle parking for the Project.  The Project also includes a plaza surrounding the Metro portal, which would be integrated with a landscaped paseo located between the proposed building and the existing parking structure to the south.  In addition, amenity decks offering a variety of social and community spaces would be provided on various levels of the new building and would include landscaped terraces, rooftop gardens, and gathering spaces.  Indoor and outdoor recreational spaces, as well as private balconies, also would be provided.
