33rd & Tejon

This innovative 23,232 SF, five-story mixed-use development combines modern wood frame construction with vibrant urban living. The building features ground-floor retail spaces, a welcoming wine bar with expansive sliding glass doors, and 40 stylish micro hotel units, all complemented by a basement level. The wine bar is designed to engage both local patrons and residents, creating a dynamic space for community interaction.

The project faced several challenges, including tight site logistics and an active residential neighborhood. To navigate these constraints, the team designed and implemented a custom, movable 5-story lift to safely work around existing power lines throughout construction. In addition, we strategically consolidated all exterior HVAC exhaust systems away from the public-facing elevations to preserve the building’s unique architectural character and enhance the street presence, while maintaining alignment with City inspection standards.
