One Mile Radius Project in Hollywood Part II



The mile radius project continues at one of the churches I attend. The section of the area that a group looked at was between Argyle and Bronson (west and east) and Hollywood and Sunset (north and south).

An interesting place in the area is called "My Friend's Place." This is a place for homeless youth.




The area has some older apartments that are well maintained.



It has other older sections that are just run down.


Just across the rundown area is this apartment or condo construction project. A gentrification.




Here's a new condo project. I've seen this project for awhile. They're still trying to sell their condos.




There are open areas where mini-parks could get built.





The westside of this area is where the nightlife is (or will be.) Here's the construction for the new W Hotel.





Just a tad south of the W Hotel is a bar called The Well. I've been there a few times for birthday parties.





Then there is the Palladium for music. This music venue went under renovation recently.





Below are a couple low lights on Sunset. Immediately below is the former building for CBS. It's been abandoned for awhile. I guess no one wants to occupy it. And then there is this old motel that's been there for awhile and I can't help but wonder who would stay there.



This area also has a number of parking lots to feed the Palladium and the Pantages, which is in the area. I didn't take any photos of those.


To end the report, some random artwork.
