“We are excited to contribute 62 permanent supportive housing units to the vibrant Westlake neighborhood in downtown Los Angeles,” said Community Development Partners president Kyle Paine un a news release. “This project aims to serve those most in need, demonstrating our dedication to tackling displacement and homelessness. Lake House is more than just a building — it's a collaborative initiative involving government agencies, nonprofits, and the community, highlighting the significance of united efforts in combating homelessness and promoting inclusive urban development.”

The new apartments range in size from 355 to 523 square feet, and come furnished with appliances and vinyl flooring. The complex also includes community rooms,a computer room, a courtyard, and a rooftop deck.
