Trammell Crow has won final approval to build a 2.2 million-square-foot development in North Hollywood, with nearly 1,600 homes, offices and retail around the B Line subway terminus.
The Dallas-based developer and its affiliate, High Street Residential, received a green light from the Los Angeles City Council to build the project around the North Hollywood Station at Lankershim and Chandler boulevards, the Los Angeles Daily News reported.
The 15.9-acre project, known as District NoHo, will be developed on land owned by the Metro transit agency and could break ground next year. It will be built in phases for up to 15 years.
What was billed as a $1 billion transit-oriented project in 2019 has been a decade in the making around the B (formerly Red) Line station.
Plans for District NoHo include 1,572 homes, of which 20 percent, or 311 units, will be set aside as affordable for low-income households, according to the Daily News. Another 55 units will be reserved for moderate-income families.
They’ll be housed in a 20-story highrise with 420 apartments, a 23-story tower with 508 apartments and a 21-story complex with 599 apartments, according to previous reports.
Trammell Crow, a unit of Dallas-based CBRE Group, will also build 580,000 square feet of offices and 105,000 square feet of shops, restaurants and bars, the Daily News reported.
Above-grade parking garages would serve 3,313 cars, including 750 reserved for Metro bus and rail passengers.
District NoHo would rise at 11163-11347 and 11264-11280 West Chandler Boulevard; 11204-11270 West Cumpston Street; 5300-5320 North Bakman Avenue; and 5311-5373 and 5356-5430 North Lankershim Boulevard, according to the Planning Commission, which approved by the project in December.
The project, designed by a consortium to include Gensler, HKS, KFA Architecture and Relm, would include three plazas containing 2 acres of publicly accessible open space. According to its development agreement, District NoHo will include a new art gallery, funding for a two-way bike trail on Fair Avenue, public art, community events and historical plaques.
Once built, District NoHo will be the largest transit-centered housing project in L.A. Metro history, with some apartments built over the train station.
The NoHo rail station, the third-busiest in the countywide system, will get a new entrance to the B Line subway on the west side of Lankershim Boulevard, plus improvements to the G (Orange) line rapid busway terminus, plus new streets and walkways.
Other improvements include a new set of escalators to the subway, additional bus bays including electric charging ports, a bike hub, a 1.2-acre park, a performance space and completion of a bicycle trail that runs from Burbank to Chatsworth.
