    8555 Santa Monica Boulevard Mixed-Use Project EIR Section 3.0 Environmental Setting 3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING This section provides a general overview of the environmental setting for the project. More detailed descriptions of the environmental setting for each environmental issue area can be found in Section 4.0, Environmental Impact Analysis. 3.1 REGIONAL SETTING The project site is located in the City of West Hollywood (City), in western Los Angeles County (refer to figures 2-1, Regional Location, and 2-2, Project Location, in Section 2.0, Project Description). Incorporated in 1984, West Hollywood encompasses approximately 1.9 square miles immediately east of Beverly Hills and west of the community of Hollywood (City of Los Angeles). The City is in a highly urbanized area of the greater Los Angeles region and is almost entirely developed. The estimated 2016 population of the City is 35,923 persons. The City’s current housing stock consists of an estimated 25,127 units. The average household size in the City is about 1.56 persons per unit (California Department of Finance, 2016). A series of east-west and north-south arterial roadways provide vehicular access to the City. Major east-west thoroughfares include Sunset Boulevard, Santa Monica Boulevard, and Fountain Avenue. Major north-south thoroughfares include Doheny Drive, La Cienega Boulevard, Fairfax Avenue, and La Brea Avenue. West Hollywood is characterized by a dense, compact urban form with small lots, a mix of land uses, and a walkable street grid. According to Walk Score, a website that ranks cities based on walkability, West Hollywood is the most walkable city in California with a Walk Score of 91 (Walk Score website, 2017).

Lead singer, guitarist, and figurehead Jeffrey Lee Pierce fits in easily with Tthe genius songwriting of Arthur Lee (Love), Chris Hillman (Byrds), and John Doe and Exene (X). Unfortunately, neither he nor his band achieved the notoriety of his fellow luminary Angelinos. From 1979 to 1996, Jeffrey manned the Gun Club ship through thick and mostly thin. Understandably, the initial Fire of Love and Miami lineup of Ward Dotson (guitar), Rob Ritter (bass), Jeffrey Lee Pierce (vocals/ guitar) and Terry Graham (drums) remains the most beloved; setting the spooky, blues-punk template for future Gun Club releases. At the time of its release, Fire of Love was heralded by East Coast critics as one of the best albums of 1981.

    West Hollywood, California's Go-To-Guide to the City's Three

    West Hollywood, California’s go-to-guide to the City’s Three Districts The Sunset Strip After decades of notoriety, the Sunset Strip continues to blaze its own path as a world-famous cultural landmark, setting trends in music, hotels, dining and shopping. This most famous stretch of Sunset Boulevard begins and ends in West Hollywood, and like the city it calls home, it is constantly breaking new ground and reinventing itself. Though it’s often been portrayed in movies like Sunset Boulevard, Almost Famous and Rock of Ages, visitors say that nothing compares to seeing the Sunset Strip up close and in person. Bordered on the west by Beverly Hills and on the east by Hollywood, this iconic 1.5 mile stretch of Sunset Boulevard features an array of world-class hotels, nightclubs, restaurants, shops and spas. Through the years, the Sunset Strip has seen it all, starting with the seedy glitz of the 1920s, when Prohibition fueled the rise of nightclubs and speakeasies. Because West Hollywood was not yet an incorporated city, this strip of Sunset Boulevard was lightly policed, making the Strip the perfect playground for the rebellious denizens of early Hollywood. By the 1940s, swanky nightclubs like Ciro’s, Trocadero and Mocambo reigned supreme, attracting A-list celebrity clientele like Marilyn Monroe along with less savory characters like gangster Bugsy Siegel, who called the Strip his stomping grounds. In the 1960s, the Sunset Strip became the major gathering place for the counterculture movement in Los Angeles. Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison were fixtures of the Strip and the surrounding West Hollywood landscape.

    Located in the Heart of Beverly Hills As the Cornerstone of the Golden

    Located in the heart of Beverly Hills as the cornerstone of the golden triangle, the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts (The Wallis) officially opens its doors to the public on October 15-18, 2013 with a dedication ceremony and a series of Galas, followed by programming beginning November 8 with the Martha Graham Dance Company. This new venue transforms a Beverly Hills city block, facing Santa Monica Boulevard, between Crescent and Canon Drives, into the first performing arts center to be built there: a vibrant arts destination and a major cultural and education hub for audiences of every age, with two distinct, elegant buildings: the renovated historic 1934 Italianate-style Beverly Hills Post Office and the new, contemporary 500-seat, state-of-the-art Bram Goldsmith Theater. Together these two structures embrace the city’s history and future, creating a new artistic and visual landmark, and an entryway into Beverly Hills’ fabled shopping district. Within the treasured Post Office, existing spaces are transformed into the 150-seat Lovelace Studio Theater, a theater school for young people (opening in 2014), a café and gift shop. For its Inaugural Season, The Wallis will produce and present theater, music and dance, as well as programming for the family audience, with the participation of established stage artists Mark Brokaw, Leonard Foglia, Ricky Ian Gordon, Frederica von Stade, Maurice Hines, Marsha Norman, Jason Robert Brown, Emma Rice, Harry Gregson- Williams, and the Kneehigh Theater. The Wallis will enhance the live theatre experience through special exhibitions that will reveal another layer meaning to a show or presentation.
