The City of West Hollywood will hold a public scoping meeting as part of the Environmental Impact Review (EIR) process for the proposed project located at 8850 Sunset Boulevard. The purpose of the scoping meeting is to share information regarding the proposed project and environmental review process, and to receive written comments regarding the scope and content of the environmental analysis to be addressed in the EIR.

The proposed project consists of the demolition of the existing commercial buildings and surface parking on the project site and construction and operation of a new mixed-use commercial and residential building. The new building would be approximately 369,000 gross square feet in size and 15 stories (approximately 200 feet) in height (including an emergency helipad). The commercial portion of the project would include 115 hotel guestrooms with ancillary uses such as meeting rooms, spa/gym, an outdoor pool area, restaurants, lounges, and retail, as well as a new nightclub space for the Viper Room. The residential portion would provide 31 market-rate condominiums and 10 income-restricted units, and would include residential amenities such as a gym, movie screening room, and an outdoor pool. The proposed project also would include four subterranean levels, three of which would primarily be used as a parking garage, providing 269 spaces.
