HANCOCK MIXED- USE HOUSING WEST HOLLYWOOD, CALIF.

摘要

More than 10 years in the making, the completed Hancock Mixed-Use Housing complex (see architect's September 2010 issue) includes 31 condominiums, seven units of affordable housing, 156 parking spaces, and more than 10,000 square feet of ground-floor retail on a busy corner in West Hollywood, Calif. "It's very sensitive," juror Yolande Daniels said of the low-slung structure. Squeezed onto a narrow dog-legged site, the complex, which sits between a car wash and other, older apartment buildings, endeavors to create a pedestrian streetscape within a very car-centric culture.
