Council District: 14, Councilmember Huizar
Project Description: The Project site is located on the southeast corner of the intersection of Mateo Street and 4th Place, with Mateo Street forming the western boundary and Santa Fe Avenue forming the eastern boundary of the site. 4th Place abuts the site to the north, and existing commercial and industrial buildings border the site to the south. The 97,460-square foot (2.24-acre) Project site is currently developed with an approximately 80,736-square foot two-story warehouse distribution building containing four tenants.
The proposed Project would include the demolition of the existing warehouse building and the construction of a mixed use live/work development containing up to 600 live/work units, 20,000 square feet of office space, 15,000 square feet of restaurant space, 15,000 square feet of retail space, and 10,000 square feet of cultural space. Up to 11% of the base density would be set aside as restricted affordable units (Very Low) via a ministerial Density Bonus. The proposed Project uses would be contained in a 13-story, approximately 150-foot high building and would contain a total floor area of approximately 584,760 square feet. The Project would have a floor-area ratio (FAR) of 6:1. Parking would be provided at and below grade screened from view, including three subterranean garage levels with ingress/egress from/to Santa Fe Avenue.
