Looks like Palms' next mixed-use development may be a blast from the past. Curbed LA first spotted a project from Gateway Equities, LLC working its way through the Department of City Planning back in 2011. Last month, plans re-emerged for "The Palms," a mixed-use development intended for the parcel at the northeastern corner of Washington Boulevard and Overland Avenue. The project is set to stand six-stories, consisting of 126-residential units above 41,000 square feet of ground level commercial space. Locally based Plus Architects drew up the Palms' retro design. A nice nod to Los Angeles' rich Art Deco history, as well as the historic MGM Studios campus located directly across the street.

Yikes. While I typically find Art Deco revival buildings to be fairly nice, this one looks ridiculous, especially the very out of place upper-story balconies.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I had the same thought about the balconies. They seem out of place given the architectural style of the building.
ReplyDeleteI'll take it!
ReplyDeleteThose balconies look like grocery carts jutting out the front
