🚨 It was a bit challenging to curate today’s newsletter. A lot of weather-related information. Many events were either cancelled, or my gut said ‘IDK…’ for whatever reason. This said, I do not want to have ‘cancelled’ events (at no fault to anybody) because of weather. Thus, I am going to start events back on Monday. This also includes the daily events found on Event Masters. 🚨 🫶

DEVELOPMENT

Ottinger Architects

🏗️ ECHO PARK: A new development is underway on Sunset Boulevard in Echo Park. The project involves the construction of a seven-story building with 176 studio, one, two, three, four, and five-bedroom apartments. The development is expected to feature amenities such as a courtyard and a rooftop deck, as well as 203 parking spaces in a podium and basement garage. The design of the building, inspired by the site's hillside location, includes a contemporary look with an exterior of metal panels and wood siding. The completion of the project is anticipated to occur over a roughly 28-month period.
🎭️ WESTWOOD: Filmmaker Jason Reitman is leading an investment group in the purchase of the historic Fox Village Theater in Westwood. The theater, located on Broxton Ave, was listed for a reported twelve million and has not been previously up for sale. The property is a landmarked art deco building and is in need of an upgrade. It is unclear what Reitman and his investors plan to do with the property. The theater, with 1,375 seats, is considered an iconic and landmark property in Los Angeles. The acquisition is expected to be finalized in the next few weeks.

Hollywood Boulevard Safety and Mobility Project

🎬️ HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD: The L.A. City Planning Department is implementing the Hollywood Boulevard Safety and Mobility Project, which will include two miles of protected bike lanes along Hollywood Boulevard from Gower Street to Lyman Place. These improvements will serve our densely-populated neighborhoods of East Hollywood, Hollywood, and Los Feliz. This project is part of the city's efforts to prioritize bicycle travel on approximately 1,200 miles of streets and other rights-of-way, as outlined in the Mobility Plan 2035. | LADOT: Hollywood Boulevard Safety and Mobility Project

BUSINESS

🛍️ NEW RETAIL OPENINGS: Several new retail openings have been reported in Los Angeles, including a variety of boutiques and stores

💰️ LYFT DRIVER EARNINGS: Lyft has announced that it will guarantee weekly earnings for its drivers, which is a first in the U.S. ride-hailing industry. This move is aimed at luring more drivers to the platform. The company will ensure that gig drivers earn at least 70% of rider payments each week, after external fees, providing them with a guaranteed minimum pay. This initiative is significant in the context of the competitive ride-hailing industry, where attracting and retaining drivers is a key priority for companies like Lyft.
🪸 MALIBU MINIMUM WAGE: The minimum wage in the City of Malibu is set to increase to $17.27 per hour starting on July 1st. This increase is based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and is part of the city's efforts to ensure that workers are paid adequate living wages. The annual adjustment is determined by the CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers. This initiative is aimed at preventing workers from leaving Malibu for higher-paying jobs and reducing traffic on local streets and Pacific Coast Highway.
💯 BEST PLACES TO WORK: Built In has released their list of Best Places To Work in Los Angeles. The list includes one hundred companies in Los Angeles, with the top three being Warner Bros. Discovery, LogicMonitor and Skechers.
🚀 BEST STARTUPS TO WORK FOR: Built In also published a list of the Best Startups To Work For in Los Angeles. Fifty startups made this particular list with Scratch Financial, Counterpart, and Cie, topping off the first three.

ENTERTAINMENT

🏀 MEGA SPORTS BUNDLE: Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery, and Fox are joining forces to launch a sports streaming platform that will offer live linear channels like ESPN, ABC, Fox, TNT, and TBS, as well as games and other sports rights from all three media giants on a nonexclusive basis. The platform, set to debut sometime this fall for NFL season, will be a skinnier bundle of linear networks specifically tailored for sports fans, providing access to sporting events, including NFL, NBA, and MLB games. The new service, which will be owned by a newly formed company with its own leadership team, does not yet have a name or price.
- 🗞️ BUSINESS INSIDER: ‘It could change TV forever’

💃 AMERICA FERRERA: America Ferrera's directorial debut, I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter, has moved from Netflix to Amazon MGM Studios and Orion Pictures.

This move marks Ferrera's first feature directorial project, and it is set to be developed at Amazon MGM Studios' Orion Pictures. The script for the film was written by Linda Yvette Chávez.
🙈 PASSWORD CRACKDOWN: Disney and Hulu are tightening the reins on password sharing, sending a clear message to freeloaders: the party's over. In a not-so-magical move, the House of Mouse is updating its terms of service to crack down on account mooching. So, if you've been borrowing your cousin's best friend's ex's login, it mivght be time to start considering your own subscription. This password crackdown takes place on March 14th and will impact those that subscribe to Disney+, ESPN+, and/or Hulu.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup will be the largest in history, featuring 48 teams, 80 matches, and 16 host cities across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. This will be a significant event for SoFi Stadium and our region, as SoFi will become the only venue to host the Super Bowl, FIFA World Cup, and Olympics in three consecutive years, with the Super Bowl LXI in 2027 and the 2028 Olympic & Paralympic Games.

* 🏗️ **ECHO PARK:** A new development is underway on Sunset Boulevard in Echo Park. The project involves the construction of a seven-story building with 176 studio, one, two, three, four, and five-bedroom apartments. The development is expected to feature amenities such as a courtyard and a rooftop deck, as well as 203 parking spaces in a podium and basement garage. The design of the building, inspired by the site's hillside location, includes a contemporary look with an exterior of metal panels and wood siding. The completion of the project is [anticipated to occur over a roughly 28-month period](https://la.urbanize.city/post/tower-crane-arrives-new-apartments-rising-2225-sunset-boulevard-echo-park).

* 🎭️ **WESTWOOD:** Filmmaker Jason Reitman is leading an investment group in the purchase of the historic Fox Village Theater in Westwood.

It is unclear what Reitman and his investors plan to do with the property. The theater, with 1,375 seats, is considered an iconic and landmark property in Los Angeles.
