Broxton Plaza

The Westwood Village Improvement Association (WVIA) is preparing for an exciting transformation in our community. By September 2024, Broxton Avenue will be closed to vehicle traffic, creating a pedestrian-friendly plaza to enhance the vibrancy and accessibility of Westwood Village. The Broxton Plaza is a temporary two-year pilot program, but we hope it succeeds and becomes a permanent part of our community.

What is a Plaza?

A plaza is a public open space closed to vehicular traffic. The Broxton Plaza will feature a patterned street treatment, large planters, tables, chairs, games, and weekly activations. Located on lower Broxton Avenue between Weyburn and Kinross Avenues, it will repurpose the street space into a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly area for events, outdoor dining, and activities. This transformation supports local businesses and enhances the street’s appearance, improving the quality of daily life in the area.

When would the Plaza be installed?

The Broxton Plaza will open in September 2024!

Will emergency vehicles have access through the Plaza?

Yes. A 20′ clearance is required.

What happens to the parking meters and structure? 

Parking meters will no longer be available on the street, but the Broxton Public Structure offers 2 hours of free parking and a flat rate after 5 p.m. The construction will not affect the parking lot. The closure of Broxton Plaza has the same footprint as the Westwood Village Farmers Market; the parking structure will remain open!

Can deliveries be made to the businesses surrounding the Plaza?

Yes, but vehicles are not allowed on the Plaza. Deliveries can be hand-carried through the Plaza or made through the alley.
