The Los Angeles City Council has voted to approve new zoning rules to facilitate the construction of a mixed-use high-rise building near the intersection of Sunset and Vine in Hollywood.

The project from Onni Group, in the works since 2016, would rise from a property located at 1360 N. Vine Street. The Vancouver-based developer has proposed two options for the site:

  •  a 33-story tower on the site, featuring 429 residential units (including 36 reserved for very low-income households) with a 55,000-square-foot grocery store, 5,000 square feet of other commercial uses, and subterranean parking.
  • a 17-story, 464,000-square-foot office building with 12,000 square feet of restaurant space below.

Both options would retain existing bungalows at the rear of the site as either 12 additional homes or restaurant space.

The City Council hearing continued fights last seen before the City Planning Commission in December 2023, where Onni was faced with appeals from the Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility, an affiliate of Laborers International Union of North America Local 27 and nearby resident Donna Williams. Both appellants argued that the project should be subjected to further study under the California Environmental Quality Act. The City Council vote to approve the projects came with the rejection of both appeals.

The project is one of several which Onni has in the pipeline for Hollywood, joining a planned 260,000-square-foot office building near the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and La Brea Avenue and a proposed 210,000-square-foot complex just north of Hollywood Boulevard.

The development is also not the first high-rise slated for Vine Street to the south of Sunset Boulevard - Kilroy Realty's On Vine campus across the street features a residential high-rise in addition to offices leased by Netflix.
