Just a few months after our last update, wood framing is nearing its peak for a mixed-use residential development from Wiseman Residential  in Carthay.

Located at 6055 W. Pico Boulevard, the project consists of a six-story building that will feature 125 apartments above 4,000 square feet of ground-floor commercial space and semi-subterranean parking.

Wiseman entitled the site using Transit Oriented Communities incentives, which allowed for a larger structure than otherwise permitted by zoning rules. In exchange for the bonuses, Wiseman is required to set aside 13 of the new apartments for rent as extremely low-income affordable housing.

Uriu & Associates is designing the project, which occupies the northwest corner of Pico Boulevard and Crescent Heights Boulevard, and is described as featuring Spanish influences and traditional materials. Plans call for amenities including a courtyard and a pool deck.

The project site sits just two blocks west of the intersection of Pico Boulevard and Point View Avenue, where Los Angeles-based Cityview recently completed  construction of a similar mixed-use building featuring 123 apartments above retail space.

Wiseman, in addition to its Carthay project, has also developed multiple projects along Pico in the neighboring Mid-Wilshire community.
