They need things to walk to first! Right now there are a some underfilled office towers, in addition to the building Jamison Services recently converted to apartments. 3033 Wilshire should help things along, as well as the new 400-unit project at 6th Virgil. With Mayor Garcetti now directing Metro to build more housing at its stations, I'm sure we'll see something crop up for the bus layover facility at Wilshire/Shatto Pl. in the near future.

Please tell me that thing is breaking ground soon?
Also the Eastown apts (formerly Blvd6200) are soon to add retail and enliven the blvd. With the quake controversy I wonder if they'll ever break ground on the second phase across the street--Hollywood's most egregious surface parking lot.

The Nov/Dec newsletter from the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce says J.H. Snyder Co. plans to break ground on 1601 Vine Street before the end of this year.
Phase two of Blvd 6200 lies almost entirely outside the 500-foot zone surrounding the Hollywood fault line. A tiny sliver at the northwest corner of the property hits it, which could mean that that Clarett could have to perform subsurface trench testing.
Of course, I'm sure Clarett is still expecting tons of opposition to the project.
