Conversion of an existing historic 12-story commercial building into 150 residential loft units, including ground-floor retail, seismic upgrades, and preservation of historic facade elements.

Historic Core Rejuvenation Inc. has been issued the permit for its ambitious adaptive reuse project at 1122 S. Broadway, a significant milestone for the ongoing revitalization of Downtown LA's Historic Core. The project, with an estimated value of $38 million, will transform a stately 12-story commercial building into 150 modern residential loft units, adding much-needed housing to the vibrant urban center.

This development is a prime example of how Los Angeles is breathing new life into its architectural heritage. The plans meticulously detail the preservation of the building's historic facade elements, ensuring that its classic character remains intact while the interior is completely reimagined for contemporary living. Ground-floor retail space is also incorporated, designed to attract new businesses and further activate the street level.

Crucially, the project includes comprehensive seismic upgrades, bringing the century-old structure up to modern safety standards. This adaptive reuse initiative not only provides housing but also reinforces the unique charm and walkability of the Historic Core, continuing its transformation into a dynamic live-work-play destination.
