Nine small-lot homes<\/a> are planned for an empty lot in Harbor Gateway.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Luigi Schiappa Development filed an application with the Los Angeles Department of City Planning to construct nine townhomes at 16215 Bonsallo Avenue, Urbanize Los Angeles reported<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While the property has a Bonsallo Avenue address, the site is located inside a block with homes on both sides of the currently empty lot. The homes would be arranged in a single row around a shared driveway and connect to Bonsallo Avenue through a single parcel slated to remain empty as a driveway access point to the property. The L-shaped lot is one block west of the Interstate 110 freeway.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Each townhome would rise two stories and come in either two- or three-bedroom floor plans, each with a ground-level garage. Dir Design is the architect for the project. A portion of the property is listed by the City of Los Angeles as surplus land. Last fall, the city put out a call to private developers to build housing on small city-owned lots as part of the \u201cSmall Lots, Big Impacts\u201d<\/a> initiative.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Luigi Schiappa Development\u2019s plans on Bonsallo Avenue are the latest multifamily proposal to land in Harbor Gateway<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Late last year, HVN Development<\/a> submitted an application to the Los Angeles Department of City Planning to build affordable housing at 1300 West 218th Street, Urbanize Los Angeles reported<\/a>. HVN\u2019s plans call for the construction of a three-story building with 52 one-bedroom apartments for rent at the low- and moderate-income levels. Because of the affordable housing component, the project is eligible for citywide housing incentives. In the past, HVN Development has leaned on affordable housing incentives like Executive Directive 1<\/a>, which expedites the approval process for fully affordable housing developments across the City of Los Angeles.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Other small-lot townhome projects in Harbor Gateway include Irvine-based Nerja Investments\u2019 22 townhome development at 15812 South Vermont Avenue<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The City of Los Angeles, which includes Harbor Gateway, is mandated by the state to plan for 456,643 new housing units by 2029.\u00a0\u2014 Chris Malone M\u00e9ndez<\/p>\n
