Project Address: 361 S. Hill Street (332–358 S. Olive Street, 351–361 S. Hill Street, 417–425 W. 4th Street), Los Angeles, CA 90013
Community Plan Area: Central City
Council District: 14—De León
Project Description:
The Project would involve a two-tower mixed-use development consisting of: 180 residential
for-sale condominium units; 252 residential apartments (including a mix of market rate and
affordable units); two hotels with a combined total of 515 guest rooms, restaurants, ballrooms,
meeting rooms, and amenities (fitness/spa); and 72,091 square feet of general commercial
(retail/restaurant) uses. The proposed uses would be distributed through a series of
terraced levels in a podium structure and two towers (Tower A and Tower B) that would be
constructed above a three-level subterranean parking garage. The Project would also
provide public and private open space areas and would retain the existing on-site Metro
Pershing Square Station portal. In all, the Project would result in up to 1,269,150
square feet of floor area with a maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of up to 13:1. Tower
A would include 63 floors with a building height of up to 854 feet. Tower B would
include 42 floors with a building height of up to 494 feet. Excavation would occur to
a depth of approximately 70 feet below ground surface as measured from the elevation of
Hill Street adjacent the Project Site.
ANTICIPATED SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS:
Based on the analysis included in the DEIR, the
Project would result in significant unavoidable noise and vibration impacts (specifically,
on-site construction noise, and both on- and off-site construction vibration [human
annoyance]). The Project would also result in significant unavoidable cumulative
noise and vibration impacts (specifically, on- and off-site construction noise, off-site
construction vibration [human annoyance], and off-site operational traffic
noise). All other potential impacts would be less than significant or mitigated
to less-than-significant levels.
FILE REVIEW AND COMMENTS:
Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update
The Department of City Planning recognizes the unprecedented nature of COVID-19, and having
been identified as an essential City service, continues to work and respond to all
inquiries pertaining to our ongoing efforts to process entitlement applications and study
updates to our community plans and citywide policies. As a result of the Mayor’s
Safer at Home Order issued March 19, 2020, some of the previous means to access materials
at libraries are no longer available to all residents or interested parties. To
that end, the Department of City Planning will ensure that interested parties seeking
information about the Project will have access.
As the Department has implemented additional measures
to ensure the safety of the public viewing physical case files, the Draft EIR and the
documents referenced in the Draft EIR are available for public review, by appointment
only, at the City Planning offices located at 221 N. Figueroa Street,
Suite 1350, Los Angeles, CA 90012. Please contact the Staff Planner listed

The Draft EIR may also be purchased on CD-ROM for $5.00
per copy by contacting the Staff Planner listed below.
If you wish to submit comments following review of the
Draft EIR, please reference the Environmental Case No. above, and submit them in writing
