City Planning Commission has approved the mixed-use Hollywood Central development. The scope of work includes the development of a community offering 633 residential units with offices, retail, and parking. The project site comprises parcels located to the south of Hollywood Boulevard at its intersections with Las Palmas Avenue and Cherokee Avenue. Two sites are included in the project, with address ranges 1610-1638 North Las Palmas Avenue, 1623-1645 North Cherokee Avenue, 1638-1644 North Cherokee Avenue, and 6626-6636 West Hollywood Boulevard.

Site 1 spans between Las Palmas Avenue and Cherokee Avenue. Plans call for replacing a commercial building and a surface parking lot with new structures containing a combined sum of 393 studios, one-bedrooms and two-bedrooms (with 40 restricted to rent by very low-income households in exchange for density bonus incentives). Specific project elements include:

• a seven-story, 87-foot-tall building featuring 46 residential units above 4,392 square feet of ground-floor commercial space;
• a 15-story, 182-foot tall building with 281 residential units and 30,200 square feet of commercial space; and
• a seven-story, 78-foot tall building with 66 residential units above 7,689 square feet of ground-floor office space.

Site 2 sits across Cherokee Avenue and would contain:

• a new 13-story, 154-foot-tall building with roughly 30,000 square feet of office and restaurant space below 240 residential units, including 27 apartments which would be restricted to rent by very low-income households; and
• two existing structures fronting Hollywood Boulevard, which would be retained
