Each was entitled using Transit Oriented Communities incentives<\/a> to permit larger buildings than otherwise allowed by zoning rules. In exchange, 69 of the new apartments are to be set aside for rent as affordable housing at the extremely low-income level<\/a> for a period of 55 years.<\/p>\n

TCA Architects <\/a>is designing all three buildings.<\/p>\n

Carmel is one of numerous development firms taking advantage of zone changes implemented by the Exposition Corridor Transit Neighborhood Plan<\/a>. Those rules have brought new apartments to several other sites in the near vicinity of Expo\/Bundy Station, including recently-approved plans for a site next door to the Carmel projects along Amherst Avenue.<\/a><\/p>\n

Carmel has targeted several sites near the E Line within the past decade for development. The company’s past work includes Linea<\/a>, a 595-unit apartment complex with retail next to Expo\/Sepulveda Station, and the Cumulus District<\/a> next to La Cienega\/Jefferson Station. The company’s other upcoming projects include a high-rise apartment tower on La Cienega Boulevard just south of Beverly Hills city limits.<\/a><\/p>\n
