On Sept. 4, the City Council will hold public hearings to consider entitlement applications for the Marriott TownePlace Suites hotel project (located at the southwest intersection of Myrtle Avenue and Huntington Drive) and the AvalonBay multi-family project (located at the northwest corner of Myrtle and Chestnut avenues).
Tharaldson Investments is proposing the development of a 109-room, five-story, TownePlace Suites Hotel by Marriott at the southwest corner of West Huntington Drive and South Myrtle Avenue. The hotel will provide a mix of three major room types, consisting of one-bedroom, double-queen, and king studios, as well as several hotel amenities, including an indoor exercise room, a breakfast room, a community table/lounge area, an outdoor swimming pool, and an outdoor seating area. The project would include an on-site surface parking lot with 109 spaces that would serve the guests, visitors, and employees at the TownePlace Suites.
The Avalon Monrovia Specific Plan and Mixed-Use Development is a mixed-use development composed of a single building containing 154 apartment residential units, 3,500-square-feet of ground-floor retail, and a five-story, six-level 286-space parking garage on a 2.1-acre site. Thirteen of the dwelling units will be reserved for lower-income residents.
