I'm hoping your typo isn't supposed to refer to "4th".
From my vantage point.....& because I was walking around there a few months ago & saw just how desperately important it is to fill in the gaps in that part of broadway.....the apt tower at 4th & broadway is among the most important in dtla. That along with the apt tower south of the grand central mkt at 4th & hill st.
the names of shomof & Behdad confuse me since I have a recollection of both of them cropping up in the past regarding articles on devlprs in dt, with projs of one being totally separate from the other.

Izek Shomof's 34 Story Tower Broadway @ 4th Permit Application Submitted 02/02/2016
Credit: LADBS, HansonLA, Izek Shomof
When taking a look at the City of Los Angeles's Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) Permit Information for 400 S Broadway, there is a permit application for a building demolition which is the one story commercial building mentioned earlier. In terms of status, under "Permit Application Clearance Information", all the items have been cleared, but the permit has not been issued yet. The most recent update was back in 10/08/2015 when the Plan Check was approved.
However, there is new news which entails the developer has submitted a Permit Application for the Broadway @ 4th project on 02/02/2016. The project entails the construction of a new 35 story mixed use residential high rise tower with a total of 450 apartment dwelling units. With regard to the parking levels, 2 levels will be underground while 6 levels will be above ground.

BROADWAY @ 4th
CCDG is proud to be the exclusive Development Advisor for Broadway@4th, providing guidance on every aspect of the development process of this project. Mr. Behdad serves as the chief advisor for the selection of every member of the project team; from architect to engineer, to the environmental and historic preservation consultants, even so much as selecting a landscape designer. CCDG supervises every operation of the project including the land-use, entitlement and governmental affairs. Needless to say, without CCDG and the expertise of Hamid Behdad, Broadway@4th would be little more than an idea.

although actual groundbreaking of one proj doesn't necessarily have anything to do with groundbreaking of another one....or isn't like a teeter totter effect, where the start of work on one proj makes the start of another one less likely....I'm surprised the way that projs barely known about until not too long ago....such as the 2 apts tower on spring st at 8th st....have managed to break ground while projs talked about for yrs & yrs....particularly at 5th & olive....sit empty as of today. So projs that have been most known about for at least a few yrs....& that I consider top priority....take forever to move past the talking stage, while projs in less prominent locations of dt somehow manage to get underway.
Unlike some forumers, I don't think the parking lot at 5th & olive, which has been a gap for over 30 yrs or longer, can afford to remain in its current state for the next 30 yrs....or next several yrs. I walked around there earlier this yr & it makes for an unpleasant gap, even more so in the context of the nearby biltmore hotel & pershing sq.
I don't think it's being overly cynical to assume the current round of new construction will result in a pause of at least a few yrs once devlprs & funders in 2016 squeeze their projs through the pipeline before December, preceding the time when hundreds & hundreds of new apts & condos come on line after 2016.
So if any proj misses out in managing a groundbreaking this yr, it may miss out for the next several yrs....or even further into the future.
