Yes, LA Grand Hotel (1,108 ft) and Angels Landing (1,020 ft). The front page hasn't been updated since the Wilshire Grand opened.

Ah okay, it would be amazing if even one of those (including 925 S. Figueroa St or even Olympia towers) could happen.

I'm probably looking forward to Olympic tower the most though since it seems to be moving forward.

Aren't we missing the Century City twin towers currently U/C? I think they're about 550'

This thread is downtown only. There is a separate thread dedicated to Metro Los Angeles projects.

Anyone want to take over moderation to update the front page and add in all the projects removed from the old thread?

Oh right, my bad. I guess Century City isn't really "downtown".

Yea that should happen, especially since Angels Landing is approved. I'm not sure the likelihood but that would sure be awesome.

Cassell’s Hamburgers opens today right across the street from Shake Shack.

Side note: Someone already tagged one of their windows according to instagram photos.

Whats the status of the 66 story tower by RTKL? the nice tall tower behind the Figueroa hotel?? or Olympia towers and also the City Lights acts tower across from the convention center?

Im really excited about south park filling in those gaps around LA live, just imagine when all those are built and the retail and restaurants filled

They'll be 600 feet tall, taller than the triangular twin towers across the street; should top out middle 2019, with completion in late '19 or early '20. In metro (non-downtown) thread like the dude says. Pics there show it is beginning to rise. Should move pretty fast, a floor a week???

I'm pretty confident the DTLA boom can continue (at a slower pace perhaps) even with the pullback in Chinese money. A recession would reduce activity, but probably not for long. The housing (if not office) shortage is just too huge, and the Olympics in '28 will spur activity. More affordable middle income units would be nice, although rising building costs make that difficult to pencil out. Government subsidies would help.

Onni has been the most prolific developer during this cycle but I think they are running out of entitled parking lots. Besides the L.A.Times land does anyone know what else they still have that is undeveloped?

Olympic and hill but I'm not certain if it's entitled yet

ChelseaFC · #**7813** Posted **Oct 30, 2018, 7:35 PM**

Onni also has a proposed 15-story tower in the Arts District.

Blesha13 · #**7814** Posted **Nov 1, 2018, 8:35 AM**

Does anyone know when we'll see the west side of Metropolis Tower IV get its glass? Ever since the crane came down earlier this year, there hasn't been any activity there.

blackcat23 · #**7815** Posted **Nov 1, 2018, 8:12 PM**

5th and Hill

caligrad · #**7816** Posted **Nov 1, 2018, 8:19 PM**

Take away the pools, give it some sexy curves instead and call it a day.

LosAngelesSportsFan · #**7817** Posted **Nov 1, 2018, 10:29 PM**

I like it cause its so different. May not be the best looking tower, but its eye catching for sure and its nice to have variety

NYC2ATX · #**7818** Posted **Nov 2, 2018, 1:12 AM**

Looks like LA's very own 56 Leonard!

I heard that too but the renderings make them look shorter. Do you have a source?

There are so many proposals, three basically over 300+ meters by seemingly reputable developers. I hope there's a chance at least one happens.

Onnis Olympic and Hill tower is really growing on me

https://urbanize.la/post/onnis-olympic-hill-development-headed-city-planning-commission

It feels like the more work they do in LA, the better they get. Based on their timeline, this should be breaking ground sometime next yea and if so, will most likely be the 4th tallest in the city when its done but that title wont last long.
