Westwood WELCOME HOME

According to a set of pictures sent in by e-mail tipster Daniel, construction is nearing completion on a the Century Park Apartments, a new multi-family complex on the southern fringe of Westwood. The five-story building, located at 10475 Santa Monica Boulevard, will contain a total of 24 rental units above a two-level, partially underground parking garage. Future residents will live in close proximity to a variety of major employment nodes and entertainment districts.

More than one year after breaking ground at Tiverton Drive and Le Conte Avenue, UCLA’s new Teaching and Learning Center for Health Sciences is finally climbing upwards. The $120 million facility, funded with a combination of cash reserves and philanthropic donations, constitutes a 110,000 square foot expansion of the David Geffen School of Medicine. The low-rise structure, designed by architectural giant Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, will consolidate a significant portion of the medical school’s classroom space, which is currently dispersed in eleven outdated buildings.
