Developer SunCal has proposed a 14.5-acre mixed-use development, dubbed 6AM, for the Arts District in Los Angeles.
The Las Angeles Times calls 6AM “the most ambitious developments of the current real estate boom in downtown Los Angeles — a massive mixed-use complex with twin towers soaring 58 stories that would dramatically remake the largely low-rise Arts District.”
The 6AM development, which is currently the site of two warehouses, would include more than 1,700 residential units (a mix of for-sale and for-rent), retail, office space, two hotels, a school, 23,000 square feet of what it calls art opportunity space and two parks.
The development is part of what the Times calls a "race to file plans with the city" before a March vote on the Neighborhood Integrity Initiative. The planning measure, if passed, would restrict high-density projects and could prevent the re-zoning necessary for SunCal to forge ahead with its plans for 6AM.
