In July 2020, LaTerra started a redevelopment project in West Hollywood area, in the location of Madison Car Wash, a vintage car wash facility established in 1964. [32] The West Hollywood Preservation Alliance claimed historical significance in the existing two-story building car washing facility of the Madison Car Wash, which was designed following neo-Googie style. Though West Hollywood Daily News reported "the historic value was not enough to save the vintage car wash" and accordingly the structures were dismantled and a 71 apartment units and 8700 Sf of retail is under construction in its place.
