Two acres of land at 1311 N. Cahuenga Boulevard is now cleared of buildings, and all that remains is a dirt pit.

The property, slated for a $110-million mixed-use complex known as the Rise Hollywood, is being developed in a joint venture between Cal Coast Development and Rescore.  Their project will consist of a seven-story building featuring 369 apartments - including 12 live/work units, 30 micro units and 20 units of moderate-income housing - above 2,500 square feet of street-fronting commercial space.

Nadel Architects is designing the contemporary mid-rise structure, which will also include basement parking, a public plaza, and various outdoor decks.  Plans also call for multiple passageways across the project site, allowing for pedestrians to cross the property.
