Dunn + Regent Owners also tapped into city incentives under the Transit Oriented Communities Incentive Program. The Tier-3 project will be allowed various incentives such as a 70-percent density bonus and 22-foot height increase.
Dunn + Regent will also have 12 car parking spaces along with stalls for 26 bikes. The project will also have amenities such as a 1,314-square-foot sky deck. The properties housing Dunn + Regent were acquired in November 2021 for a total of $4.2 million, according to Los Angeles County property records.
