Located at 823 Cleveland Street, the project consists of a five-story building with nine suites that will be subdivided into 53 individual units of affordable housing. Plans call for private bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as shared common areas like kitchens and living rooms.
Tighe Architecture is designing the contemporary podium-type building, which will also include an on-site manager's unit, office space for resident services, and a rooftop amenity deck.
Funding for the project was provided in 2023 by United Way of Greater Los Angeles, Genesis LA, California Community Foundation and Apple, the non-profit developer announced last month.
