The partnership has also acquired a second land site for the development of 71 apartment homes in West Hollywood at 7617 Santa Monica Blvd, West Hollywood.
Charles Tourtellotte, LaTerra Development CEO, said: 鈥淨uadReal is a well-respected, world class organisation with whom we are honoured to partner for our new build to core strategy in Los Angeles, one of the best apartment markets in the country.鈥�
Tim Works, QuadReal Americas MD, said: 鈥淟os Angeles has extremely high barriers to entry, and we are excited to partner with a local operator that has significant entitlement expertise and reach into the local market.
鈥淏urbank and West Hollywood are sites that LaTerra spent years entitling, allowing QuadReal to immediately gain access to two of the best submarkets in Los Angeles.鈥�
Jonathan Dubois-Phillips, QuadReal international president, said: 鈥淚nvesting in global markets with constrained housing supply encourages our investment of time and resources, especially when demand is strong and increasing. Our convictions and commitments are long term focused.
