Reminds me of 1180 Peachtree in Atlanta.

Can't wait to see this one get going. It's a beautiful design.

I've been waiting for this tower to break ground. It will be a nice addition to Downtown LA.

Master Plan Dan Apr 18, 2007 11:01 PM

I really like the treatment of the glass.

Stephenapolis Apr 18, 2007 11:33 PM

Very sharp looking tower. It will make a nice addition to LA.

Lecom Apr 18, 2007 11:49 PM

Yep, should look good in LA.

john_mclark Apr 19, 2007 4:43 AM

Stratosphere Apr 19, 2007 5:06 AM

Roger, that. :yes:

I like 1180, it's an awesome, sleek building.

MGW Apr 19, 2007 2:55 PM

WOW I really really like this building. And NYC can't have something like this because.....?

caltrane74 Apr 19, 2007 3:11 PM

They should leave the Marroit sign out of the design.

I understand the brand-co-mingling and all..but still. It's a weaker brand and they shouldn't include it in the design when they have to go head to head with the Four Season's LA, argueably one of the better hotels on the westside.

From the LA Business Journal, April 16th. According to this, groundbreaking may be more than 11 days off. Hopefully not. We've been waiting for this thing to get going for some time.


AEG Lands Hotel Partner
By DANIEL MILLER
Los Angeles Business Journal Staff
Anschutz Entertainment Group Inc. has found a new partner for its Convention Center hotel project at L.A. Live after going it alone for several months.

Macfarlane Partners LLC, a San Francisco-based real estate firm that specializes in development and investment management, will replace former partner KB Home, according to a downtown real estate source. The Los Angeles home builder dropped out of the $800 million project in December.

Macfarlane’s deal with Los Angeles-based AEG is said to be structured similarly to KB’s, with the two firms equal financial partners but Macfarlane acting as the “lead development partner,” according to the source.

“Macfarlane isn’t just giving them money,” the source said.

The $2.5 billion L.A. Live project across from Staples Center will include a 54-story hotel tower that will feature an 878-room hotel operated by JW Marriott and a 123-room Ritz-Carlton atop the Marriott portion of the building.

Peter Houghton, managing director of Macfarlane, declined to comment except to say, “We are happy to attend the groundbreaking ceremony if we are invited.”

AEG spokesman Michael Roth said that his firm is “prepared to be the sole investor” and said the company would not make any announcements prior to a groundbreaking ceremony, which is set to take place in five to seven weeks.

KB pulled out of the project in December after its former Chief Executive Bruce Karatz, who had been a champion of the hotel, left KB over an inquiry into stock option practices.

Yeah, I figure the groundbreaking will happen sometime in June '07
