The property owner, Hanjin International Corp. requests to modify Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 71141-CN for the Wilshire Grand redevelopment project, previously approved on November 5, 2010. The first final unit map for VTT-71141 was recorded on VESTING TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 71141-M1 PAGE 2 September 17, 2015. The project is currently under construction and is expected to be completed in 2017. The project was originally approved as a mixed-use development with a maximum of 100 condominium dwelling units, 560 hotel rooms and/or hotel condominiums, 1,500,000 square feet of commercial office space, and 275,000 square feet of commercial, retail, restaurant, service, and amenity space in two towers. As part of the approved entitlements, the City granted the applicant a land use equivalency program which permitted an exchange in land uses. The revised project includes no condominium dwelling units, 889 hotel rooms, 369,300 square feet of commercial office space, and 34,766 square feet of retail and restaurant space in one tower. The approved VTT-71141 was a 50-lot subdivision for merger, re-subdivision, and condominium purposes. The revised Vesting Tentative Tract Map will be a 13-lot subdivision, with one master lot and 12 airspace lots, for merger and re-subdivision purposes. The airspace lots will be in a different configuration than originally approved due to the changes made in the architectural design of the project.

Degree awarded December 2012 ii © 2012 Lanbin Ren iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Lanbin Ren Doctor of Philosophy Department of Landscape Architecture December 2012 Title: Park-above-Parking Downtown: A Spatial-Based Impact Investigation Parking and parks are both crucial to downtown economic development. Many studies have shown that downtown parks significantly contribute to increasing surrounding property values and attract residents, businesses and investment. Meanwhile, sufficient available parking promotes accessibility to downtown that also contributes to increasing tax revenue for local government. However, both downtown parks and parking raise problems. Many downtown parks have become places for drug dealing, shooting and vandalism since the decline of downtowns in the 1960s. At the same time, residents and visitors alike oftentimes complain about the lack of parking while in fact parking spaces occupy a large amount of land in downtown.
