Academy Square on Vine reaches back up to grade

The mixed-use development project at 1341 Vine Street in Los Angeles, CA has nearly completed the below-grade parking structure, and is now placing concrete at the ground floor and looking to go above grade.

Construction on the Academy Square on Vine project, a new $450-million, mixed-use project being developed by Kilroy Realty Corporation and designed in collaboration with House & Robertson Architects and GBD Architects, began earlier this year. Covering 3.5 acres and occupying a full city block bounded by Vine Street, DeLongpre Avenue, Ivar Street, and Homewood Avenue in Hollywood, the mixed-use development campus has over 150,000-square-feet footprint and over one-million-square-feet of total area. The entire project is comprised of five buildings on the podium including a 20-story residential tower in the northwest corner of the site which all sit over a three-story underground concrete podium structure. Entertainment giant and media services provider Netflix, Inc. has signed a long-term lease with Kilroy Realty for a whopping 355,000-square-feet at the Academy Square on Vine which means Netflix will occupy all the space in the three office buildings being built on the property. This large mixed-use construction project is expected to be completed in 2020.

Mixed-Use developments continue to be a hot market, but are complicated developments bringing together multiple occupancies with different agendas and needs at a site.
