Document Description
The project proposes the adaptive reuse of a large former aerospace manufacturing building at 2400 E. Wardlow Rd. The building at 2400 (Building 2) would be renovated for Relativity Space, an aerospace manufacturer. Upgrades would include interior demolition of existing configurations, construction of new tenant improvements, and minor exterior remodeling. Upgrades would also include some site improvements to the parking fields and site landscaping. Limited site grading or excavation (ground disturbance) would occur at both sites and would be limited to existing foundation
excavation and removal, parking field spot resurfacing and repair, landscaping, and utility installation (sewer, domestic water, gas, electrical).
The proposed project also includes off-site improvements, mainly to Wardlow Road between Cherry Avenue to the west and the boundary of the Long Beach Airport property to the east. These improvements consist of reconfiguration of the 80-footwide right-of-way to include a parkway strip, sidewalk, and Class IV bike lane on both sides of the street meeting the standards of the City’s Public Works Department. Other improvements include the addition of a median, addition of mid-block pedestrian crossings at multiple intervals on the project block, and ADA and signalization improvements to the intersection of Cherry Avenue and Wardlow Road. Additionally, limited improvements will be made to on-site utility connections, as well as a new electrical connection between the “Astro” customer-owned electrical substation on the north side of Wardlow Rd. with Building 2 on the south side of Wardlow Road. Lastly, the project site would be connected to the City’s reclaimed water system for landscape irrigation. The nearest reclaimed water main is located in the Wardlow Road right-of-way on the west side of Cherry Avenue.
