      Description

      RTI approved permits for a "Shovel-Ready", non-rent controlled (no low-income requirement / no SB 8), 4-unit multifamily development that will overlook the downtown Los Angeles skyline and is within close walking proximity to the new 6th Street Bridge and P.A.R.C. under construction. Adding greater value, on December 12, 2023, the LA City Council voted to adopt the Boyle Heights Community Plan with rezoning amendments that will allow up to 11 residential units / 6,601.8 buildable sq. ft. at market rates or up to 20 residential units / 13,203.6 buildable sq. ft. with max bonus. In addition, the new zoning allows for the option of mixed-use development with no restriction on building height and the number of residential units will still remain up to 11 market rate units or up to 20 units with max bonus!

        "Noisy , no parking at all. Really bad communication between the staff and residents. A lot of stray cats and roaches and rats and possums. Property looks like it is just painted over once someone moves out, even the bathtub. They took parking away from residents which is supposed to be first come first served, and started charging over 75 dollars for a reserved parking spot that you cannot choose. Basically, whatever is available, could possibly be far from your place of living. And it’s only one reserved spot per household. When school is in session, there is always traffic or always traffic around 5 on the school street. Price is too high for living in a bad neighborhood with hardly no benefits. "
