What’s Next for Division 6?

The 3-acre block that makes up the former Metro bus yard, known as Division 6, represents a once-in-a-life-time opportunity to implement a community vision for this central location in Venice. After completing a series of workshops, focus groups, an on-line survey, and various other outreach activities, Metro is now preparing development guidelines that will assist us in selecting a developer that can deliver on this vision.

Did we get it right? In the stations that follow, let us know what you think!

1WHAT ARE DEVELOPMENT GUIDELINES?

Mariachi Plaza, January 2017

North Hollywood, December 2015

Development guidelines address a variety of topics such as building height and density, pedestrian circulation, public art, ground-floor uses, and much more. These guidelines help Metro solicit proposals from developers, evaluate their work, and guide development. Metro has recently prepared Development Guidelines for Joint Development sites in Boyle Heights, North Hollywood and on the new Crenshaw line.

Housing Outreach Process In 2018, Metro’s Joint Development team initiated community outreach to develop a vision for the long-term use reuse of Division 6. Working with residents, businesses and other stakeholders, the team gathered feedback and ideas about how this site could be developed to have broader positive community impact, increase mobility connections and improve quality of life – all of which is now shaping the development guidelines for the long-term development of the Division 6 Site. Past outreach activities include:

Outreach Summary• 3 Focus groups• 9,000 hand-delivered flyers• Workshop #1 October 25th, 2018• Workshop #2 December 1st, 2018• “Walk-a-bout” with residents• Venice Farmers Markets• “Virtual Workshop” with over 1,000 participants• On-line comments

Proposed Development Requirements • The scale and character of the project should complement the surrounding community• The massing should be broken down, stepping up from 2 to 3 stories along Main Street and 3

Proposed Development Guidelines• The ground-floor experience should create a dynamic and enjoyable environment that

encourages pedestrian participation and generates interest • Massing should be well articulated and not monolithic • Create visual connections and view corridors between the development and the

surrounding community
