Suffolk has recently completed the construction of 1500 Granville, a multifamily, mixed-use facility in West Los Angeles. The five-story, 174,000-sf complex is a new housing option for UCLA Medical’s House Staff (medical residents, fellows, and interns), medical graduate students, and other graduate students.

1500 Granville features 153 studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and live-work units; 15,000-sf of retail; and 308 spaces of subterranean parking. Sixteen of the units are set aside as affordable. Residents will have access to a variety of indoor and outdoor gathering spaces including a clubhouse, co-working space, a gym, a pool area, BBQ, and multiple outdoor and courtyard areas for recreation.

The ground floor retail and restaurant spaces feature multiple outdoor dining and recreation areas that connect the public building space to the surrounding community. These new spaces will look to create an “urban village” to engage the public stretch of roadway that has been known for speeding cars and heavy traffic.

The project is the final phase of a multi-block development that was previously occupied by car dealerships.

AEC inspections are the key to financially viable office to residential adaptive reuse projects

About a year ago our industry was abuzz with an idea that seemed like a one-shot miracle cure for both the shockingly high rate of office vacancies and the worsening housing shortage. The seemingly simple idea of converting empty office buildings to multifamily residential seemed like an easy and elegant solution. However, in the intervening months we’ve seen only a handful of these conversions, despite near universal enthusiasm for the concept.
