Bernards is currently constructing 8500 Burton Way, a $32 million residential mixed-use project at the intersection of Burton Way and La Cienega Blvd. in West Los Angeles.
Being developed by Caruso Affiliated, the project includes 88 luxury apartment homes atop a 14,000-sf Trader Joe’s market and a new coffee shop.
Designed by McLarand Vasquez Emsiek & Partners, Inc., the eight-story building’s design includes floor-to-ceiling glass, curved lines, pronounced deck-edge elements, and an smooth-plaster and stone façade.
The residential component provides one- and two-bedroom apartment suites that range in size from 900 to 2,200-sf. They feature high ceilings, separate media rooms, wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows, and balconies or patios that provide views to downtown, the Hollywood Hills, and Pacific Ocean.
