Near the intersection of Hoover Street and Manchester Avenue, completion is nearing for a new affordable housing complex from Domus Development.

The Executive Directive 1 project, located at 823 W. Manchester Avenue on a former church site for Life Enrichment Ministries, consists of a four-story building that will feature 42 apartments.

According to an application submitted in 2023 to the City of Los Angeles, the 100 percent affordable development will include a mix of studio and one-bedroom units.

KFA Architecture is designing the contemporary low-rise structure, which includes a courtyard, a recreation room, a rooftop deck, and parking for five vehicles.

The proposed project is located one block to the east of Manchester's intersection with Vermont Avenue, where 180 units of affordable housing were recently completed as part of the Vermont Manchester redevelopment.

Domus Development is also building a similar 90-unit complex on a property located just north of Manchester at 85th and Hoover Streets.
