A vacant office building in Downtown Whittier is set to make way for new townhomes from MW Investment Group, according to a newly published environmental study.

The proposed development, named the Comstock Place Townhouse Project, would rise from a roughly .826-acre property at 12826 Philadelphia Street. The site, which also has frontage on Comstock Avenue to the east, is slated for the construction of 24 two-, three-, and four-bedroom townhomes in addition to 59 parking spaces.

KTGY is designing the Comstock townhomes, which are depicted in renderings as a series of contemporary three-story structures. Plans show the buildings would be arranged around common driveways and walkways.

Construction of the townhomes will require the approval of a vesting tentative tract map, a development review, and other actions by the City of Whittier.
