According to the LA Times, Wilshire Grand reached a momentous occasion as a ceremony was held on 03/08/2016 to celebrate the tower 'Topping Out'. When the project is finished, the tower will stand a total of 1,100 feet tall including the spire. Within this massive mixed use tower will contain about 400,000 square feet of office space and 900 hotel rooms. The attached building will also contain convention space and also includes ballrooms.
