Affordable housing rising at 7655 S. San Pedro Street in Florence

Construction has commenced for new affordable housing in Florence, according to permits issued by the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety.

The project, which comes from Los Angeles-based developer Eleos, will rise from a previously vacant lot located at 7655 S. San Pedro Street. Plans call for a four-story building featuring 40 one- and two-bedroom apartments without on-site parking.

Project entitlements include Transit Oriented Communities incentives, which permit a larger structure than would otherwise be allowed by zoning rules. Outside of a mandatory manager's unit, of the apartments are to be rented to low-, very low-, and extremely low-income households, making it eligible for the incentives.
