The development firm behind plans to bring a Costco-anchored apartment complex to Baldwin Hills is cooking up plans for more housing in East Hollywood, per new documents unearthed with ATC.

The proposed project from Thrive Living, slated for a mid-block site at 1141 N. Vermont Avenue, would replace a stretch of residential and commercial buildings to the north of Metro's Vermont/Santa Monica Station. Plans call for a seven-story building - composed of prefabricated modular units - containing 290 studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments atop parking for 78 vehicles.

As an Executive Directive 1 project, all of the apartments must be restricted to rent by lower-income households. Thrive is planning 232 low-income units and 58 moderate-income units.

The project is the latest in a recent string of developments slated to reshape the blocks surrounding Vermont/Santa Monica Station, including an affordable housing complex from LTSC rising adjacent to the entry plaza and a 177-unit mixed-income development taking shape one block to the east.

Thrive Living, in addition to its East Hollywood and Baldwin Hills projects, is developing a modular apartment complex in Chinatown.
