Approve changes to the Common Area/Entertainment Center at California Plaza in the Bunker Hill Project Area. RECOMMENDATION That the Governing Board approve the proposed changes to the Water Court at California Plaza. SUMMARY The recommended action will facilitate a significant capital investment by the property owners at California Plaza to renovate the main public area enjoyed by tenants and visitors and used by Grand Performances for its ongoing artistic and cultural programs. The three property owners at California Plaza have collectively agreed on necessary capital improvements in the area generally known as the Water Court. The plan contained in the Gensler schematic design would replace the water features with a round central lawn, thereby enhancing seating areas for Grand Performances events. In addition, the area would benefit from new landscaping, potted plants, trees and outdoor furniture. The owner-approved budget for the renovation is $4.5 million, with construction estimated at 24 weeks. The property owners have worked closely with key stakeholders, including Grand Performances, to mitigate impacts from the proposed changes. Grand Performances has submitted a letter in support of the owner’s request. PREVIOUS ACTIONS None. DISCUSSION & BACKGROUND The Water Court, and other elements of the Entertainment Center, was developed in the 1990s alongside the Two California Plaza office building.
