Location: Los Angeles, California
Client: Mitsui Fudosan America
Johnson Fain has completed the design of a 41-story residential tower for Mitsui Fudosan America. Situated on a prominent one acre site, the 8th & Figueroa mixed-use project enjoys a highly visible position on the western edge of downtown Los Angeles. The 424,489 square foot project includes 438 residential units and approximately 7,500 square feet of ground floor commercial spaces. A mix of studio, one and two bedroom units are provided. Six levels of parking, three subterranean and three above-ground, provide 519 parking spaces. The roof of the parking podium serves as a residential amenity level featuring a pool, fitness room, lounge, dining area, meeting and game rooms. Residential units are located on levels seven through 40 and the roof features a landscaped deck with an indoor lounge. Key sustainability measures include a high performance façade, low flow plumbing fixtures, low water demand landscape design, building materials with recycled content and a close proximity to major transit systems.. Construction is expected to commence in 2020.
