A new affordable housing project for seniors will be soon developed at 5645 West Fernwood Avenue and 5636 De Longpre Avenue in Hollywood, Los Angeles. The project proposal includes the development of a 26-story on a surface parking lot and marks the transformation of the landmark Hollywood Western Building.

Local real estate development firm ABS Properties is the project developer. Cuningham Group is responsible for the design concepts.

Plans call for the construction of a new 26-story high-rise building which will replace the triangular surface parking lot on the site. Named, Skyvillage Hollywood, the building will feature a total of 499 studios, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom apartments for seniors on its upper floors. 54 parking stalls in stackers will be designed in a basement garage.

ABS is seeking the approval of density bonus incentives permitting relief from local zoning restrictions relating to floor area, open space, and setbacks. The project will include 100 moderate-income units, 394 low-income units, and five manager’s apartments.

The building facade will rise to a height of 283 feet. Renderings showcase a contemporary exterior of fiber cement and metal panels, with cantilevering balconies and solar panels embedded into the side of the building. In addition to private open space, a rooftop deck is also inclusive of the onsite amenities.

At the street level, ABS has proposed realigning the wedge-shaped intersection of Fernwood and De Longpre, allowing the tower to rise on the western side of the intersection rather than the eastern. The ground plane surrounding the high-rise would be improved with a landscaped plaza featuring a community garden, outdoor seating, and water features.

The proposed project sits a block southwest of the intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Western Avenue.
