The Azusa City Council recently approved plans to redevelop portions of a golf course near the San Gabriel River. 

The Azusa Greens project, slated for a property at 919 Sierra Madre Avenue, would involve the redevelopment of roughly 40 acres of the golf course of the same name. Formerly a full 18-hole course, the site has been reduced to 16 holes, and would be further reduced to nine holes after completion of the new project.

Overton Moore Properties, which owns the site, intends to build a senior housing complex on the northern portion of the golf course site, on land abutting the club house. Plans call for 38 buildings containing 30 duplexes, triplexes, and stacked flats for residents aged 55 years and older. The nearly 20-acre southern section of the course would give way to six new tilt-up concrete industrial buildings with offices. Plans call for a total of 353,000 square feet of space, and buildings rising up to 38 feet in height.

The remaining 53 acres of the golf course would be retained in place, including a nine-hole course, clubhouse, and driving range.

AO is designing the senior housing, with MJS serving as landscape architect, according to plans approved by the City Council. HPA is designing the industrial buildings.

Construction is projected to occur over a 22-month period.

Other projects from Overton Moore include a sprawling mixed-use complex next to Hollywood Burbank Airport.

Overton Moore's project joins a handful of developments replacing golf courses in L.A. County, including a new proposal which would bring nearly 400 homes to a portion of the Woodland Hills Country Club property.
