So according to Curbed, the supposedly temporary renderings of the Millenium Hollywood towers are not so temporary.
Looks like this is what we're going to get, pending the results of the geological study that's been all over the local news today.
Assuming the study finds no active fault underneath the property, construction will start one year from now with the hotel tower at the corner of Ivar and Yucca. Full build out of the proposal is scheduled to take 30 months, so we'd be looking at completion of the entire project somewhere in early 2017. The 3rd tower hasn't been talked about much (if at all), but it looks to be about 12-15 floors tall. Difficult to tell from the renderings we've seen so far, but it looks similar in height to the W Hotel.
Just a few years ago, a building that size would have been cause for uproar in Hollywood. I suppose the two larger towers in the proposal have changed the equation for development in the neighborhood.
