The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has voted to approve more than $29.9 million in bond financing for the construction of a new affordable housing development in unincorporated El Camino Village. 

The Toyon Gardens project, which is being developed by Brilliant Corners, will rise from a property located at 3127 W. 147th Street, replacing a truck and container storage lot. Plans call for the construction of a new five-story edifice containing 78 studio, one-, and two-bedroom dwellings, reserved for renters earning up to 30 and 60 percent of the area median income level for a period of 55 years. 

Included in the project will be offices for on-site supportive services and property managers, as well as a 38-car garage, a community room, and an outdoor landscaped space.

The property is located  few blocks north of the intersection of Crenshaw Boulevard and Marine Avenue, where a 222-unit micro-unit apartment building is in the works.

Brilliant Corners recently wrapped up work on a similar affordable and permanent supportive housing complex on Avalon Boulevard in Wilmington.
