At a ceremony held on May 4, non-profit developer A Community of Friends (ACOF) commenced work on Huntington Square, a new permanent supportive housing complex in the City of Huntington Park.
The project, which will rise from a vacant lot at 6101-6123 State Street, will consist of a four-story building featuring 48 apartments for seniors who are veterans, low-income, and homeless. Outside of a two-bedroom manager's unit, the apartments would consist entirely of studios and one-bedroom dwellings.
According to a July 2022 staff report to the L.A. County Board of Supervisors, the apartments are to be reserved for households earning at or below 30, 50, and 60 percent of the area median income level.

FSY Architects is designing Huntington Square, which is portrayed in a rendering as a contemporary low-rise structure with an exterior of stucco and corrugated metal panels.
ACOF closed $17.3 million in construction financing for the project in April. Work is expected to be completed in late 2024.
Other ongoing projects for the developer include the Lorena Plaza apartments now rising in Boyle Heights.
