901 Levering Student Housing Project

901 Levering Student Housing Project

The proposed Project involves the construction of an approximately 310,000 square foot (SF), 19-story student housing building for UCLA undergraduate students on an approximately 0.74-acre Project site located at 901 Levering Avenue adjacent to the UCLA campus. Five existing University-owned two- and three-level apartment buildings with 42 units and 52 beds, totaling 23,952 SF, would be demolished. The proposed Project would provide up to 1,150 beds within 148 units, with a combination of one-, two-, three-, and primarily four-bedroom units. The proposed Project would include common courtyard and terrace areas oriented towards Levering Avenue, as well as a lobby/lounge, office, laundry facilities, a mail/package room, a vending area, an outdoor covered fitness area, bicycle parking, and study rooms. There would also be spaces for housekeeping and maintenance, mechanical equipment, and trash collection. On-site vehicular parking for residents and guests would not be provided. A loading/parking area accessed from Levering Avenue would provide two parking spaces for service vehicles, deliveries, and trash removal. Pedestrian access to the proposed building would be provided from a main entry courtyard on Levering Avenue and from a secondary entrance on Level 4 at Weyburn Place. New utilities would be installed onsite and would connect to existing utility infrastructure surrounding the site. The Project would achieve at minimum a LEED Gold rating and strive for a Platinum rating. Earthwork necessary for building construction would require excavation to a maximum depth of approximately 52.5 feet, as measured from the Weyburn Place elevation, and require the net export of approximately 60,900 cubic yards of soil.
