Directly south of the Van Nuys Metrolink and Amtrak station, construction is complete for Moderno, a new multifamily residential development built on the former site of a furniture store.
The project, located at 7650 Van Nuys Boulevard, consists of a six-story building featuring 124 studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments above at-grade and subterranean parking for 126 vehicles.
Project approvals included Transit Oriented Communities incentives to permit a larger structure than typically allowed by zoning rules. In exchange, 13 of the new apartments are to be reserved for rent as extremely low-income affordable housing.
Rents for the market-rate units are currently listed as ranging from $1,911 to $2,944 per month.
Ken Stockton Architects designed the contemporary low-rise building, which includes a fitness room, a media room, a courtyard, a pool and spa, and a large rooftop deck.
City records list the project's developer as an entity managed by Shlomi Asiss.
Van Nuys Station is poised to become a key regional transportation hub in the coming years, given that it is expected to serve as a transfer point to the new East San Fernando Valley light rail line and a planned heavy rail line connecting the Valley to the Westside via the Sepulveda Pass.
