Curbed L.A. is sounding an alarm today, echoing a warning from the SunsetJunctionDestruction blog, about a development scheme that will flatten the current structure at 4000 Sunset Boulevard and replace it with a four-story, mixed-use design that would create retail space along with room for a restaurant and a planned “security rental building” containing 94 units. Cautioned SunsetJunctionDestruction:

“Every structure on this land, including one residence and the landmark

Sunset Junction “Red Car” streetcar station would be torn down to

accommodate this project which includes a 150 parking space

subterranean parking facility for their tenants and patrons of the

retail establishments therein.”

Curbed L.A. writer Dakota was particularly disturbed over the fact

that the developer did not permit its artist renderings for the project

to be photographed at a recent neighborhood council meeting: “Silver

Lake residents! Be wary! Developer Frost Chaddock is well known for not

building what they promised.”
