Project Goals and Objectives The Project proposes redevelopment of the 1.20-acre Project Site, a gateway site within the northern portion of the Beverly Hills Business Triangle, to establish an anchor use that will attract visitors to the Business Triangle and Beverly Hills. The Project proponent, Cheval Blanc (a division of LVMH), develops and operates a limited number of one-of-a-kind luxury hotel developments at select locations around the world. The Cheval Blanc Beverly Hills, the first urban Cheval Blanc in North America, will provide a one-of-a-kind luxury Hotel development that will promote harmonious, robust and resilient economic development of the Business Triangle and surrounding area.

Consistent with Cheval Blanc’s commitments at its properties throughout the world, the development incorporates environmentally sensitive, sustainable, and responsible design. The Project’s goals and objectives include: To ensure that a luxury mixed-use Hotel-driven development acting as an anchor use for the northern portion of Rodeo Drive will enhance the City’s Business Triangle and will promote harmonious, robust and resilient economic development of the Business Triangle and surrounding area.

Project Overview The Project includes approximately 211,971 square feet of floor area in a single building including: A Hotel with approximately 115 guest rooms and Appurtenant uses including but not limited to a private Club, restaurants, bars and lounges, lobbies and other common areas, meeting rooms, wellness (fitness) center, Spa, screening-game rooms, storage including wine storage, and back of house (“BOH”), occupying approximately 187,671 square feet, with up to 5,000 square feet of outdoor dining areas and approximately 20,000 square feet of pool deck areas on the varied roof areas, and ample balconies associated with guest rooms.3 24,300 square feet of first floor at grade (ground floor) and second floor Retail space. 172 vehicle parking spaces in a subterranean garage; a Parking Demand Analysis is attached hereto as Exhibit 1. The Project includes demolition of the existing improvements on the Project Site, described below. The Project’s maximum proposed above-ground floor area ratio (the “FAR”) is approximately 3.9:1, and its cumulative FAR is approximately 4.2:1. The Project varies in height from five stories [maximum height of 51 feet] along North Rodeo Drive to nine stories [maximum height of 115 feet] along North Beverly Drive. The Project includes three subterranean floors: B1 is space devoted to BOH uses, internal circulation, loading and parking; B2 and B3 are devoted to parking, internal circulation, storage and building systems. 3 Exterior walls, stair shafts, elevators, elevator lobbies less than 100 sf per cab, parking spaces and access, mechanical equipment/machinery rooms, outdoor dining areas, decks and balconies are not included in floor area calculations 2 Typical Hotel rooms range from 620 square feet to 1,300 square feet, providing a generous guest experience. Floor to floor heights are typically expected to be 12’-6,” which will require efficient planning to achieve room ceiling heights of 9’-6” with a 3’-0” envelope remaining to accommodate structure and mechanical-electrical (“MEP”) systems distribution. The existing alley that runs north-south and is currently accessed from South Santa Monica Boulevard will be relocated to the southern portion of the Project Site. The new access point to the alley will be from the west side of North Beverly Drive. A valet Motor Court on South Santa Monica Boulevard will be used for drop-off and pick-up for Hotel guests, Club members, Spa, Retail and Restaurant patrons. Employee and valet driven vehicles will enter the Project’s subterranean parking from the relocated alley off of North Beverly Drive. Employees and delivery pick-up trucks will exit the subterranean parking through the existing alley. Valet driven vehicles will return from the subterranean garage to the Motor Court via ground-floor internal circulation; a Valet Parking Management Plan is attached as Exhibit 2. Retail parking may be provided by participation in the in-lieu parking program. The Project’s two full size loading area will be located at grade on the Project Site with access for the relocated alley: two smaller format van loading spaces may be provided below grade as described in Exhibit 3. Primary pedestrian access to the Project Site will be provided through the Hotel entrance along South Santa Monica Boulevard; a Club member alley also provides pedestrian access on North Beverly Drive. Retail spaces along North Rodeo Drive will have separate pedestrian access points from the sidewalk along the street. Visitors may not access the hotel through the North Rodeo Drive retail spaces. The main access to the ground floor restaurant will be through the Hotel lobby, with secondary access points provided on South Santa Monica Boulevard and North Beverly Drive. 3 The Project’s square footage, by use, is summarized in Table 1 – Development Program.

  • S Beverly Hills Epitomizes Upscale Travel
    California’s Beverly Hills Epitomizes Upscale Travel by Lee Foster Travel in the United States has become decidedly upscale, for some. Observers of travel have watched as this measurable trend developed. For a small, but identifiable segment of travelers, price is no object. What is of concern is the highest quality in accommodations, dining, and experience. This is the traveler whom every destination now seeks to woo. For the majority of travelers, reports on this privileged minority amount to armchair or fantasy travel, an act of vicarious gratification. Nowhere in the U.S. is the phenomenon of upscale travel better expressed than in Beverly Hills , CA . This writer on one occasion immersed himself in this elite travel environment. It is fitting that here the movie industry, the makers of illusion, also finds its home. Beverly Hills passed its 90th birthday in 2004 and headed confidently towards 100. The old gal isn’t allowing herself to show her age, of course, because plenty of cosmetic surgery is ongoing in the hotels, shops, and restaurants. “We see ourselves as an oasis where the traveler can find the highest quality goods, the best hotels and restaurants, and the ultimate in service,” said the Beverly Hills ‘ mayor. LODGINGS: STARTING AT RAFFLES L’ERMITAGE Raffles L’Ermitage Hotel in Beverly Hills may well be the choicest lodging in America . Such objective observers as AAA and Mobil have awarded it their coveted five star/diamond ratings, which are tough to get and rarely coincide in one property. L’Ermitage enjoys plenty of competition in Beverly Hills from the Beverly Hills Hotel, Regent Beverly Wilshire, and Beverly Hilton.

  • ANALYSIS of EXISTING CONDITIONS a Subregional View Of
    ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDITIONS A subregional view of travel on the Westside has been drawn from interviews with elected officials, meetings with MTA and other agencies and analysis of existing data. The subregion considered in this analysis is shown in Figure 1. Because transportation does not respect political boundaries, the Westside Mobility Study area is roughly all of Los Angeles County west of La Brea Avenue, north of Los Angeles International Airport and south of Mulholland Drive. The Westside has many of the most important activity centers in all of Southern California; 16 of these are shown in Figure 2. The Westside Mobility Study has begun to define what might be done to meet those needs for improved linkages, specifying the most critical locations for major transit improvements and other multimodal improvements. Evaluation of Existing Transportation Conditions A goal of the Westside Mobility Study is to provide an accurate picture of the existing traffic and congestion levels on primary arterials and corridors in the Westside area. As there was a large amount of readily available, current data, no new supplementary traffic counts were conducted. Data was acquired from the following sources and ranges predominantly from 2000 to the present day: · Traffic data from the Cities of Beverly Hills, Culver City, Santa Monica and West Hollywood · Transit data from Culver City Bus, Big Blue Bus and MTA · Information from MTA’s Short Range Transportation Plan: Technical Document · Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) database of traffic counts · Previous Kaku Associates projects · Caltrans counts 10 WESTSIDE MOBILITY STUDY SSOCI TES A Corporation FIGURE 1 STUDY AREA Multi-purpose Activity Centers WESTSIDE MOBILITY STUDY SSOCI TES A Corporation FIGURE 2 MAJOR ACTIVITY CENTERS Area Characteristics - Employment, Population and Housing: The Westside area has at least 10% of the jobs in Los Angeles County and is home to over 6% of County residents.
