DESCRIPTION OF WORK:
901 LEVERING STUDENT HOUSING
Project Number 946289.01
The Los Angeles campus proposes to construct the 901 Levering Student Housing project. The
site, purchased by UCLA in May 2024, currently consists of five aging residential buildings with
42 apartment units. This project will demolish the existing buildings and construct a 19-story
building with approximately 145 apartments, totaling roughly 310,000 gross square feet. The
project will provide approximately 1,130 new undergraduate student beds in predominantly four-
bedroom (double occupancy) units.
The proposed building will be a Type I high-rise concrete structure. Exterior materials will include
a prefabricated curtainwall panel system with fiber cement or ultra-high-performance concrete,
metal panels, and punched window components. Exterior materials at the building base will
include curtain wall and storefront systems, integral color cement plaster, and architectural-grade
exposed structural concrete. The project will connect to municipal utilities, including domestic
water, fire water, sanitary sewer, and stormwater. Electrical and telecommunications utilities are
anticipated to connect to the University’s campus loop.
The project will include an outdoor terrace, entry, and rear courtyards, enclosed on all sides and
open to the sky, as well as other landscape and hardscape elements. A service drive accessed
from Levering Avenue, located at the southeast corner of the building, will provide direct access
for maintenance and service vehicles, deliveries, and trash removal. On-site alternative
transportation facilities will include ground-level bicycle storage and a designated scooter parking
area. Pedestrian access will be provided from the existing sidewalk on the west side of Levering
Avenue and via a street-level connection at Weyburn Place on the building's fourth level.
The Project shall comply with the University of California Policy on Sustainable Practices and
achieve a minimum LEED – NC Gold Certification rating.
The project work hours will adhere to Los Angeles City noise ordinances.
The Project site is not identified on any lists of hazardous waste sites compiled pursuant to
California Government Code Section 65962.5.
The Anticipated Contract Value is $278,300,000.
