The Beverly Hills Planning Commission’s Jan. 14 meeting agenda included a one-year review of Spring Place operations, potential updates to the 1131 Tower Road project and a study session on synthetic turf in residential front yards.
Chair Terri Kaplan introduced the first item on the agenda, an informational report on the one-year review of Spring Place operations. Spring Place is a co-working office and private membership club that operates within the offices and on the rooftop of the commercial buildings located at 9800 Wilshire Blvd. and 121 Spalding Drive. Issues were raised over Spring Place’s violation of regulations regarding rooftop use. In October 2024, they held a rooftop event but failed to notify the director of community development ahead of time. However, attorney Tom Levyn representing landlord The Gores Group informed the commission that Spring Place’s relationship with 9800 Wilshire and 121 Spalding has now been terminated. As a result, a new private club called Good City Studio will be opened in the same location. Levyn confirmed that Good City Studio will abide by all conditions set by the Planning Commission and previous resolutions.
