New development is taking place in the heart of Los Angeles as the construction of a large-scale mixed-use project, known as 3rd & Fairfax, gains momentum. Located at 6300 West 3rd St. in the Mid-Wilshire neighborhood, this project will replace a portion of the Town & Country shopping center with an eight-story structure designed to cater to both residential and retail needs. The developer behind the project is Holland Partner Group, while architecture firm MVE + Partners is behind the project’s designs.
Construction is already underway, and when completed, 3rd & Fairfax will offer 331 apartments with the convenience of ground-floor retail spaces, according to a report from LAYIMBY. The eight-story building will also offer a diverse range of residential units, including studios, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments, all situated above 84,000 square feet of commercial space. Parking will also be provided for 996 vehicles with a two-level subterranean garage and a three-level podium structure.
The property is situated just across the street from two iconic Los Angeles sites, The Grove and the Farmer’s Market. The area surrounding the site is primarily home to retail properties with other apartment buildings also located within the immediate vicinity.
Renderings of 3rd & Fairfax reveal a contemporary design for the apartment complex. The facade, reaching approximately 100 feet in height, utilizes setbacks and cutouts to minimize its impact on the surrounding environment. Additionally, the project includes courtyards and amenity decks, offering residents ample outdoor spaces.
The project has evolved from its initial proposal in 2018, according to industry reports. At that time, Holland Partner Group had envisioned a 19-story high-rise with over 380 residential units.
Founded in 2001, Holland Partner Group is a real estate development and investment firm based in Vancouver, Wash. The firm has completed a development and acquisition transaction volume that represents more than 40,000 apartment homes and exceeds $20 billion, according to its website. With a focus on the west coast, the firm has made investments into a number of cities, including Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, Denver, San Diego and the San Francisco Bay area.
