825 Hill is located in Downtown Los Angeles (DTLA) on Hill Street in between 8th and 9th Streets. According to The City of Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS), Onni Group has successfully obtained their Site Grading and Temporary Shoring permits on 1/12/2016. This project consists of a 49 story mixed use residential tower. The architect is Chris Dikeakos Archtectural Corporation.
The Report also states the 6th and 7th floor of the podium will include open space, for residents, totaling about 29,245 square feet (courtyard, garden plaza, outdoor flex space, and a swimming pool). Additionally, each unit would have private balconies or roof decks.
Currently, the future project site is a surface parking lot. Speaking of vehicle parking, the Report states the project requires 581 vehicle parking spaces. However, in the Report, the developer would provide about 600 vehicle parking spaces along with another 5 spaces for commercial purposes totaling to 605 vehicle parking spaces. Bicycle parking must also be provided where the project is required to provide 648 bicycle parking spaces for residential (short term: 59 spaces and long term: 589 spaces) and 4 bicycle parking spaces for commercial. The proposed configuration stated in the report is as follows: Residential (short term: 59 spaces and long term: 589 spaces = total: 648 spaces) and commercial (short term: 2 spaces and long term: 2 spaces = total: 4 spaces). Overall, this is a total of 652 bicycle parking spaces.
