Arts District Street And Transportation Improvements Funded With State Grant

Arts District Downtown LA
Arts District Downtown LA Councilmen Proposes advanced mobility and access.

Last year, the state’s Active Transportation Programs awarded Los Angeles over $12 million grant to fund a range of infrastructure improvements in the Arts District.

Currently, the City Council list of projects only includes street and infrastructure improvements for safe crossing and park lighting, 14th District Councilmember Jose Huizar is now looking to fund transportation improvements in the neighborhood. According to Urbanize LA

Last week, Huizar introduced a motion with the aim of providing multi-modal transportation options to residents of the Arts District. This could potentially incorporate bike share and care share facilities, electric vehicle charging, mobility hubs, expanded bus service, and other options. Huizar’s proposal, if adopted by the full City Council, would direct the Los Angeles Department of Transportation to report on a comprehensive strategy for mobility options in the Arts District, as well as potential funding options to facilitate the program. This could include the creation of a parking revenue local return area in which a percentage of revenue generated by parking meters would be reinvested in mobility improvements in the Arts District.

Huizar’s motion has been referred to the City Council’s Transportation Committee for consideration.

Mobility in the Arts District could be further enhanced by a proposed extension of Red and Purple Line service to a new station at the Sixth Street Viaduct. Although Metro has no immediate plans to build the station, the Division 20 maintenance yard is being redesigned in a fashion that will not preclude an extension of passenger service to the Arts District, and the City of Los Angeles has agreed to fund a study of the matter.

The proposed transportation improvements are the latest in a number of the public realm and mobility projects that Huizar has pitched in the Arts District. He has also pushed for undergrounding power lines in the neighborhood to remove visual blight and improve sidewalk access.

With the backing of state money and city council leadership, the proposed transportation enhancements will be a big boost for the Arts District neighborhood.  Living and working in the LA Arts District is getting more and more inviting as time goes by.  Check out available Properties in the Arts District.

ELLEVEN LOFTS FOR SALE     |     ELLEVEN LOFTS FOR LEASE

Elleven Lofts has a thoughtful architectural design that blends in with its neighboring buildings in the South Park district of Downtown Los Angeles.

The exterior of the building is wrapped in glass, which allows plenty of light into each of the lofts, providing an open space for the residents, and maximizing views of the surrounding LA city and skyline. A socially responsible and economically friendly approach was taken during the construction and maintenance of Elleven Lofts.

A Modern Building

Built with sustainable materials are things that look and function as well as, or better than, conventional materials, but have less impact. Things like wood floors cut from sustainable forests. Cabinets made from renewable, non-toxic wheatboard. Natural fiber carpets. Showers, toilets, and fixtures with low-flow designs that conserve water.  As a result, Elleven is the first green residential building in downtown Los Angeles and is certified by the U.S. Green Building Council.

Green construction techniques include everything from transporting materials to the construction site more efficiently to putting thought toward how we can integrate the building into its neighborhood with minimal impact.  For example, using tall windows to let more light flow in, which saves on lighting energy, or using treated glass and sunshades, which help save on cooling costs
