Fido Lofts

dog-lofts-4Real Estate News (Downtown Los Angeles)  — Now that 46% of Downtown residents currently own a dog or plan to purchase a pooch within the next 2 years, specialty real estate developer Dorr of Los Angeles has announced plans to build a loft specifically to cater to the needs of our special canine friends.  Construction of the new lofts begins in May 2016.  The new Downtown luxury dog lofts start in the low $800,000s and will range all the way up to $6.7 million, and each Fido loft will feature doggy built-ins and, in addition to a traditional dog walk, the new building will also boast a tropical resort style swimming pool and rooftop deck for dogs and their loving companions.

Real estate agent Cookie Chatham has announced that she is now specializing in real estate for canines. The Downtown specialist real estate team announced today that they will become the first brokerage in the state to represent dogs in the purchase and sale of lofts and dog houses. “In California, it is illegal to discriminate, so we will ensure that every dog is represented equally, be it a pitbull, great dane, chihuahua or shitsu,” says Cookie. Dogs worldwide are looking forward to moving to Downtown Los Angeles because it is the most dog-friendly urban community.  After he was rescued from Lacy Street Animal Shelter, chihuahua-mix Zenith Puppy Pacquiao is looking forward to moving to new doggy digs. “Living with my human folks at Alta lofts has been nice, but I’m three years old now and I need my own place where I can be a dog,” says Zenith. At 13 lbs, he is sure to find Fido lofts to be an easy fit.

Moving can be hard on everyone involved: adults, kids, and yes… even your pets! While your pet may not understand exactly what is going on, they can sense the stress (good or bad), that the whole family is experiencing. Add to that the fact that animals are creatures of habit and do not like changes to their usual routine, and you can understand why they become so confused.

Olympic Tower Los Angeles

A new mixed-use hotel, retail and residential building development is under way in Downtown Los Angeles on Olympic.  Across the street from The Ritz-Carlton, the new building will replace what is currently Downtown’s most convenient car wash.  The cars of DTLA will get a little dirtier as there are no other quick drive-through car washes in the booming neighborhood.

With some unusual features including a weird pinch in the middle, Curbed LA calls the new building design “bonkers”.

At the end of 2015, plans were unveiled for a redevelopment of the Downtown Car Wash in South Park, Olympic Tower 60-story tower with LED signs and live plants interwoven into its exterior, along with a rooftop garden.  374 residential units, 33,500 square feet of office space, a 10,800-square-foot conference center, and more than 65,000 square feet of restaurant and retail space will join a 373-room hotel.

Architecture firm Nardi Associates says that the building will feature a structural grid with live plantings, like a gigantic “urban tree”.  An open-air atrium will be encased by a metal structure with a sloping roofline, so the highrise will have a sharp roof instead of a helipad.

In 1980,  the car wash developer paid only $525,000 for the parcel. By 2005, the land was valued at $2.4 million. In 2014, developer Ben Neman bought the parcel for $25 million.

The building’s height means that it would block views of the Hotel Figueroa. There is no word on whether the residential portion will be rental or condo, but rental is more likely based on what most other developers have been choosing.

Be among the first to find out if the new highrise will contain rental apartments or condominiums for sale. Get Olympic Tower updates in your email. Fill out the online form:
