Montage Hotel To Be Built

0

The California Supreme Court will not hear opponents’ case against a Beverly Hills luxury hotel.


The decision was announced Wednesday and ends litigation against the project, said Larry Weiner, Beverly Hills city attorney.


The Montage Hotel, already under construction just north of Wilshire Boulevard on Beverly and Canon drives in Beverly Hills, will feature 214 rooms, 33,000 feet of public gardens and a 1,772-car underground garage to be used by the city and hotel guests. The project is scheduled for completion in fall 2008.


Community groups opposed plans for the hotel by the Phoenix-based Athens Group, saying the project would aggravate traffic congestion in the area.


Representatives of Campaign to Save Beverly Hills, the opponents’ group, couldn’t be located for comment.
