The Eastern — 8300 Wilshire Boulevard
Description
A 34-story mixed-use building with 211 units (32 affordable) and 473 parking spaces was approved that same day under AB 2011's ministerial process — no public hearing or council discretion allowed.
Impact summary
Beverly Hills gets a very tall building it couldn't say no to; the council is pushing a nexus study to recover the costs of growth and arguing the state must reimburse unfunded mandates.
