 A city official will conduct a public hearing at 11:15 a.m. Thursday, Jan. 19, on a proposal to build a live-work condominium project at the northern entrance to Palms just off the I-10 Rosa Parks Freeway.
The project on the southeast corner of National and Overland (blue border in the map) has changed considerably since it was first broached to the nascent Palms Neighborhood Council some two years ago.
The applicants, Aaron Swerdlow and National Development, are hoping to build a 29-unit residential condominium with 58 resident parking spaces and 15 guest parking spaces, with about 3,250 square feet of ground-floor commercial use (which will have 13 parking spaces). That will provide parking for 86 cars altogether.
All of this requires a zone change, a variance and a zoning administrator's adjustment.
The building would be 50 feet above ground level, with four floors above three levels of subterranean parking.
The public hearing will be in Room 1060 of the Downtown City Hall.
The project is Case No. APCW-2005-6968 and can be accessed through the city's Zoning Improvement and Map System (does not work with Macintosh Safari). More information is available through city officials Nick Polimeni at (213) 978-1453 or Jim Tokunaga at (213) 978-1172.
