    III. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING Section 15125 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines requires that an EIR include a description of the existing environment. This section is intended to give a general overview of the environmental setting for this project. More detailed information on existing conditions is provided under each individual environmental topic studied in Section IV, Environmental Impact Analysis. This section also provides an overview of the related projects that are considered as part of the future conditions in evaluating cumulative impacts. A. OVERVIEW OF ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING 1. Project Site and Surrounding Area Location As stated in Section II, Project Description, the project site is located in the Wilshire Community Plan Area, approximately 2.5 miles north of the Santa Monica Freeway (I-10). In addition, the northern one-third portion of the project site is located within the Miracle Mile District, a mile-long commercial corridor fronting Wilshire Boulevard from Sycamore Avenue to Fairfax Avenue. The Wilshire and LaBrea Project consists of a residential component and a retail/restaurant component. Specifically, the proposed project is situated on a 147,057-square-foot site that is bound by Wilshire Boulevard to the north, Sycamore Avenue to the east, 8th Street on the south, and La Brea Avenue to the west. Existing Land Uses The Wilshire Community Plan Area has a pattern of low- to medium-density residential uses interspersed with areas of higher-density residential uses. Long, narrow corridors of commercial activity can be found along major boulevards, including Wilshire Boulevard. The Miracle Mile District consists of a mixture of commercial, retail, upscale restaurants, and museums that are very popular destinations for tourists.

Inside an open, loftlike space, seven 20- somethings work at a central pod of desks near an L-shaped kitchen stocked with free snacks and drinks. Employees’ dogs scamper beneath their feet while a team of programmers, eyes glued to computer screens, huddles in a separate room. But there is a giveaway clue that Tradesy isn’t based in Silicon Valley or one of the dozens of other tech hubs that have taken root from Austin to Omaha: a deck off the kitchen is piled with surfboards. From there, the Pacific Ocean and the wide white- sand beach of Santa Monica, Calif., is about 300 yards away–easy walking distance when the waves are breaking. “We have two things we hold dear here,” says Tradesy co-founder and CEO Tracy DiNunzio, 35. “Catered food delivered for all meals and being close to the ocean.” Such is life in Silicon Beach, a stretch of roughly four miles from Venice to Santa Monica that has become the heart of Los Angeles’ fast-growing tech scene.

    Why Silicon Beach Bros Are Buying in Brentwood 6:30 AM PDT 11/4/2017 by Peter Kiefer

    Why Silicon Beach Bros Are Buying in Brentwood 6:30 AM PDT 11/4/2017 by Peter Kiefer Courtesy of HILTON & HYLAND This $38.5 million South Burlingame estate is listed by Hilton & Hyland's Drew Fenton. L.A.'s digital jet set migrates north for space, privacy and a respite from anti-tech sentiment: "No one wants to be picketed." The borders of Silicon Beach loosely extend to Venice Beach, Santa Monica and Playa del Rey, where the L.A. area's largest tech employers — Google, Yahoo, Snap and Riot Games — have set up shop the past decade. But when Snap founder Evan Spiegel put down personal roots, the Silicon Beach wunderkind (credited with either transforming or destroying Venice, where Snap is headquartered, depending on whom you ask) settled on a ZIP code that struck many observers as counterintuitive. With wife Miranda Kerr, the 27-year-old plunked down $12 million last year for a Gerard Colcord-designed estate just below the Getty Museum in Brentwood. With the Silicon Beach tech community now in its adolescence (Google announced its move to Venice seven years ago) and adjacent real estate surging to record per-square-foot highs amid dwindling inventory, a trend has taken hold: Tech titans are leaving Santa Monica condos and Venice bungalows in the rearview mirror of their Teslas as they head to the quiet calm offered by Brentwood. "My prediction all along was that they would end up coming to Brentwood," says the Agency's Santiago Arana, who has brokered multiple deals in the neighborhood for tech moguls.

    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.

  • Silicon Beach Shows Promise, Not Profits

    Silicon Beach Shows Promise, Not Profits

    www-old.carseywolf.ucsb.edu Carsey-Wolf Center at UC Santa Barbara By John Vanderhoef 16-20 minutes Modeled after Silicon Valley in the Santa Clara Valley near San Francisco, Silicon Beach is a cluster of technology and software development firms that spans a three-mile stretch from Venice Beach to Santa Monica. Although there has been a tech presence in the LA area for decades, this presence dramatically increased after the economic collapse of 2008 when unemployment in Silicon Valley enticed many in the tech industry—including some of the original creators of a then-ailing MySpace—to pursue their own startup ventures. Lured by cheaper rent, better weather, beach access, and closer proximity to entertainment companies, today over 800 startups call Silicon Beach home. Moreover, as startup fever increases in the area, new tech-based companies have spilled over into surrounding cities, including Hollywood, Pasadena, and Culver City, bringing the number of start-ups in the region to over 2000. The area has even attracted heavyweights like Microsoft, Facebook, and Google, all of which have set up shops along the southern coast. Together these firms focus on digital games, video, social and creative apps, and e-commerce. However, as a young cluster, Silicon Beach has yet to launch a single breakout success story. As such, it currently represents a growing tech bubble built on eyeballs, not direct spending, and depends on a workforce and investor class structured by risk. On top of that, the relationship between the technology and entertainment industries remains fraught. Although Silicon Beach represents the potential for a union between technology and entertainment, the experiment might also prove to be incompatible with Hollywood interests.
