Long Beach's new tallest building is preparing to break ground at the corner of Ocean Boulevard and Alamitos Avenue, according to LongBeachize.

The project, a follow-up to the $70-million Current apartment tower next-door, calls for the construction of a 35-story building that would feature 315 residential units, approximately 6,700 square feet of commercial space and five levels of subterranean parking accommodations for 458 vehicles.

LongBeachize reports that the new building, which is tentatively called the East Tower, will feature a mix of studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments ranging from 520 square feet to 1,176 square feet in size.

Studio One Eleven, Carrier Johnson + Culture and RELM Studio are designing the project, which would rise to a maximum height of 417 feet above street level, eclipsing the Long Beach World Trade Center.  It would be located across a 10,000-square-foot public plaza which will be shared with the Current.

The full development is a joint venture between Anderson Pacific, LLC; Ledcor Properties, Inc.; and Qualico Developments, Inc.
