The city of Los Angeles this month released an initial study on plans to develop a 13-story, 175-room hotel near the northwestern corner of the intersection of Sunset and Cahuenga Boulevards.
The proposed development is being led by an affiliate of NELA Group and would rise at 6437 – 6445 W. Sunset Boulevard, replacing a two-story commercial building with an approximately 173-foot-tall, 60,000-square-foot hotel building. The existing property is owned in a joint venture by affiliates of NELA Group and Jonathan Barr, founder of JB2 Investments. It was acquired in 2019 for about $7.5 million, county property records show.
Designed by Archeon Group, the Hollywood hotel development would take about 22 months to build, with completion expected in 2024, according to this month’s initial study.
Plans call for guest rooms on floors six through 12, above 68 parking spaces within floors three to five and, on the second floor, an approximately 6,500-square-foot, 255-seat restaurant and bar with an 84-seat outdoor deck facing Sunset Boulevard.
The building’s top level would contain a roughly 4,900-square-foot, 301-seat indoor restaurant and bar with a 1,580-square-foot, 56-seat outdoor deck at the rear of the building.
Just called the Archeon Group, they said the person who designed this hotel is no longer with the company and they have no idea what’s going on with it. Maybe they just didn’t want anyone to call them about it though.
