The recommended internet site, labelled under the arrangement as Property 71, extends 84,000-square-feet and also was formerly functioned as a public transportation location. The Panel of Leisure and also Park Commissioners file specified that engineering studies conducted as part of the plan "have actually revealed that the expense to fix as well as retrofit Building 71 will definitely far surpass what LACMA had actually initially determined." In 2017, Michael Govan's head of state estimated the venture to cost $25 thousand.
