Boasting nine acres, 1.2 million square feet, 436 residential units, the 308-key Conrad Los Angeles, and 176,000 square feet of retail, dining and entertainment, The Grand LA is one of the largest, vertically integrated, mixed-use developments in the nation.
The Grand LA’s residential tower rises 45 stories with 436 luxury residences, of which 20% are affordable units. The 20-story, 308-key Conrad Los Angeles, the flagship of Hilton’s luxury brands, flanks the residential tower and includes 12,000 square feet of meeting rooms and ballrooms, and 27,000 square feet of restaurants, lounges, and outdoor amenities.
The Grand LA has generated broad community benefits since the commencement of construction, including the creation of an estimated 10,000 new jobs and the development of much-needed affordable housing, of which 15% is at or below 40% AMI and balances at or below 50% AMI.
Additional social responsibility for the community is to lease at least 10,000 square feet of the food and beverage retail space to local businesses headquartered in the County of Los Angeles, and lease at least 2,000 square feet of the 10,000 square feet to a local business and entrepreneur that is identified as a representative of the creative economy.

Vox at Cumulus is a comprehensive mixed-use community to shop, work, play, connect and live all in one place. The site planning and architecture responds directly to the urban scale, fabric, and culture of its surroundings; with connections and access points to the neighborhood. The master plan links the train station to new community space, retail and a one-acre park. Residential parking is a 1.5 story garage below grade and the retail, office and guest parking is a two-story garage above grade. One key component to the design’s interaction with the site is the large glass box at the vehicular entry off La Cienega, which provides a view into the site and the inner park.
