Owner Douglas Emmett Inc. is evicting 712 Tenants to install fire sprinklers and complete safety upgrades. The Ellis Act provides for relocation assistance, but the eviction will displace a community of tenants into a market that lacks affordable housing including families and seniors.
The eviction is legal because of the Ellis Act which allows owners to take rental properties off of the market. What the future of the building is after the renovations are completed is not known.
