I think the HollywoodHUB project is a win/win and will serve to revitalize the Hollywood District. I look forward to your continued coverage.
I work 3 blocks from this area and do attend the Hollywood 24 Hour fitness next to this proposed site. I always thought this area as “dead space”, so I like what is proposed here. What is really exciting is the “urban efficiency” in mass transit: one can literally be let off on their front door via the MAX train at this proposed living area… Or go to the Lloyd Center by train in 90 seconds, to Gateway 3 miles away in 5 minutes: impressive. Yes please keep us posted, this location is prime in terms of logistics.
