MVE + Partners, Cecconi Simone, and Build Group highlight the design-build team for the project, which is portrayed in renderings as a contemporary podium-type building. Plans call for a mix of studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments, as well as eight two-story townhomes fronting Ayres Avenue to the south. Plans also call for amenities such as a health club with an outdoor fitness lawn, a podium pool deck, communal workspaces, and an indoor club room.
At the time of the project's groundbreaking in Fall 2022, completion of Overland & Ayres was expected in late 2024.

The project is billed as the final component of the redevelopment of the former Westside Pavilion, which shuttered in 2018. After purchasing the eastern half of the property, GPI led the redevelopment of the Macy's and its adjoining parking garage, while the mall's main building has been converted by Hudson Pacific Properties into a 584,000-square-foot campus for Google.
In addition to its new residential development on Overland, GPI has also built luxury rental units in West Hollywood and is partnering on a high-end condo complex in Beverly Hills.
