Concrete and rebar are already rising, but a groundbreaking ceremony this week makes it official: work is underway for the Century + Restorative Care Village in Lincoln Heights.
The first phase of the project at 1321 N. Mission Road, which is being developed by Century Housing Corp., calls for the construction of 146 supportive and affordable homes, as well as a 12-bed peer respite facility, and on-site supportive services. The apartments are to be reserved for households earning between 30 and 60 percent of the area median income level.
A second phase of the project, which was previously developed with ancillary buildings to Los Angeles General Medical Center, will add another 150 homes to the property, as well as a workforce development center. The project complements the larger Restorative Care Village at the medical center campus, joining a 128-bed mental health rehabilitation center located east across Mission Road.
Practice and Studio-MLA are designing the project, which is shown in plans as a contemporary five-story complex with landscaped open spaces interspersed throughout the ground floor.
Other members of the project team include Century Oasis Residential Services, Heat Forward LA, Urban Semillas, and Dave Pilon.
