The Los Angeles planning department has given the green light for plans to convert a seven-story office building at 5260 West Century Boulevard to a new hotel with up to 362 rooms, according to a determination letter filed by the city last week. The applicant behind the development, which is named Airport Center, is Miracle Mile Holdings, the office property’s longtime owner, plans show.
Slated for the southwestern corner of West Century Boulevard and Glasgow Place, the adaptive reuse project won’t alter the roughly 100-foot-tall building’s height or footprint, according to planning documents. Along with interior work on each of the seven floors, plans call for the exterior demolition and replacement of the building’s existing curtain wall system.
The site of the new hotel is less than two miles east of Los Angeles International Airport.
The new development will also contain about 6,100 square feet of ground-floor retail and restaurant space. Parking will be provided through an existing 908-stall structure.
The project and landscape architects for Airport Center are shown as Rockefeller Kempel Architects and Duane Border Design, respectively, plans show.
