A New LA Story

1111 Wilshire Boulevard
Los Angeles, California

By mid-2009, the most desirable residential district in downtown Los Angeles will include a 52-story high-rise, mixed-use tower with 420 residential units, parking and retail space.

The project includes 740 subterranean and above-grade parking spaces, a boutique hotel, ground-level retail and 420 residential units. The total floor area is approximately 700,000 square feet on this one-acre site.

Our structural solution incorporates a dual frame system — reinforced concrete shear walls coupled with ductile special concrete moment frames — to resist seismic and gravity forces. Post-tensioned flat plate construction throughout the tower will achieve optimum constructability and floor height/aspect ratio.

The property sits on a hill at the west side of Downtown Los Angeles.
