The former site of a commercial building near the K Line’s Leimert Park Station is slated for redevelopment with affordable housing, according to an application filed with the Los Angeles Department of City Planning.<\/a><\/p>\n

The project, slated for the currently vacant site at 4345 S. Crenshaw Boulevard, is being developed by an entity affiliated with Venice Community Housing<\/a>. The non-profit developer has proposed the construction of a new five-story building featuring 56 apartments above 1,974 square feet of ground-floor commercial uses and parking for 11 vehicles.<\/p>\n

Venice Community Housing is utilizing several affordable housing bonus and streamlining measures in the application. Save for a mandatory manager’s unit, all of the apartments would be reserved for rent by low- and moderate-income renters.<\/p>\n

Other ongoing Venice Community Housing projects include new apartments planned or underway in Venice<\/a> and Santa Monica.<\/a><\/p>\n
