The city recently approved plans for a 55-key boutique hotel at 1525 Cahuenga Boulevard in Hollywood.

The hotel is dubbed “NUE” for “New Urban Experience” on the architect’s site, Urbanize reported.

nKlosures is designing the project, which was first proposed in 2014 by an unspecified developer. The unknown entity signed a 50-year ground lease with the property’s owner that same year, according to Bisnow.

The hotel, which will replace an existing commercial property at the site, will have seven stories, a rooftop deck with a pool, ground-floor retail space and a restaurant on the half-block parcel of land.
