Architect Steven Giannetti designed the Thatcher Yard apartments, while HED served as architect as record. The project gradually scales down in height moving west away from Lincoln Boulevard toward the adjacent single-family neighborhood, and includes a courtyard, a fitness center, community rooms, and common laundry facilities.
The project follows several recent affordable and supportive housing developments in the Venice neighborhood, including a 34-unit apartment building that recently opened on Rose Avenue and a 40-unit building at 2467 Lincoln Boulevard. Both of those projects were developed by Venice Community Housing Corp.
