Boyle Hotel Apartments is managed by The John Stewart Company.
The Boyle Hotel on the Boyle-Cummings Block is a 3-story, 45,000 sf existing historic unreinforced masonry (URM) structure located adjacent to the historic Mariachi Plaza in East Los Angeles. Westport conducted an extensive seismic reinforcement and historic rehabilitation which provided 31 units of housing in conjunction with the construction of an adjacent new, 3-story, 20-unit Type V structure over a new 2-level Type I garage structure.
Scope of work included seismic reinforcement and structural repair, restoration of historic elements to regulatory standards, new electrical, mechanical, life safety, and plumbing systems, new elevator, new windows, restoration of existing windows, new roofing system, all new finishes and hardware. The existing continuous and pad foundation system was augmented by moment frames supported on pads and grade beams.
Because of the historic qualities of the building, Westport's craftsmen set up a woodworking shop on the premises to recreate and restore the building's wood trim elements, including moldings, handrails, and particularly the curved-sash windows at the historically significant corner cupola.

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
