Citrus Commons

Location: Sherman Oaks, California

Client: IMT Residential

Citrus Commons is a mixed-use project occupying Southern California’s historic Sunkist headquarters site.  The project design restores the landmark modernist building, pays tribute to the region’s agricultural heritage and integrates it into a pedestrian-centric and residential urban village. The historic office building is re-imagined as a creative office environment, surrounded by gardens and outdoor gathering spaces and centered on the historic central atrium, redesigned and refurnished.

Two mixed-use residential buildings are located along Riverside Drive. A major grocer anchors the ground floor along with smaller community-serving retail tenants and the residential lobbies. The residences are a mix of one and two-bedroom units plus ground level townhouses.  Parking is dispersed throughout the site in either below-grade levels or perimeter above-grade parking structures.  Street trees and furnishings, paving and plant materials provide continuity and encourage public access through the project, the surrounding neighborhood and the landscaped parkway along the adjacent Los Angeles River.
