This mixed-use project at the edge of downtown Beverly Hills includes the first new apartment building in the district in two decades. The luxury project consists of 12 townhouses and 76 apartments, as well as a 40,000 square foot office building.

The two-story townhouses have a “brownstone” expression, with individual street-front entries and gardens, responding to the residential street.

The apartments above are set back from the townhouses, and are arranged in an “E” plan configuration, optimizing orientation to richly landscaped podium gardens and to the residential street below. Building massing steps down towards the lower-scaled residential street.

A ground level motor court entry serves the project. The street-front townhouses line two parking levels. Additional parking is provided underground.
