A trio of new affordable housing developments are in the works for Echo Park, according to new plans revealed by Kevin Tsai Architecture.
Visionary Development, helmed by former professional basketball player Terry Harris, is behind all three of the projects. The proposed developments - planned by Harris with his brother, NBA player Tobias Harris - would replace small residential and commercial buildings with structures containing more than 270 homes using the Mayor's Executive Directive 1.
