Playa Vista Village Update
The Los Angeles Times reported that the Planning Commission unanimously voted December 10th to approve the final phase of the massive Playa Vista development between the Westchester bluffs and Marina del Rey.
Playa Vista is the final stretch for the Village. Two more City Hall meetings in March could determine our fate. That's why it's important that residents and friends show up at City Hall to show support. Playa Vista residents have a history expressing their community dedication by appearing at City Hall voicing their opinions.
Now Playa Vista residents/supports can call Bill Rosendahl at 213.473.7011 and express support. You probably won't reach Mr. Rosendahl but leave a message with your name, phone and address.
President William Roschen praised Playa Vista as a "smart, sustainable project."
The 111-acre second phase -- which Roschen called the project's "centerpiece" -- is intended to complete the vision of Playa Vista as a live-work-play community and will be built between the existing mixed-use residential community to the west, home to more than 6,000 residents, and the office campus to the east.
The Village will add 2,600 homes, a shopping center, office buildings and parks on property that for decades housed an airstrip and manufacturing facility used by Hughes Aircraft.
Playa Vista officials said the Village was designed "to be the heart of Playa Vista," the link between Phase 1's nearly complete residential, office and retail community and the commercial campus, which Tishman Speyer Properties and Lincoln Property Co. are developing into high-tech office space.
