The Depot at Hyde Park broke ground last year and has taken shape along Crenshaw Blvd. The plastered exterior was recently unveiled featuring bold moments of orange. The project continues our work with long-time development collaborators, GTM Holdings and general contractors, United Building Company. Depot at Hyde Park marks our first collaboration with W.O.R.K.S. (Women Organizing Resources Knowledge and Services), who have designated all 43 units to be affordable housing and half of them to be specifically dedicated to victims of domestic abuse. The design intent is to catalyze high quality development and architectural design along the Crenshaw corridor. The building façade presents a dynamic, pleated effect, conveying movement along the street so that no two vantage points are alike. On axis with 66th Street, the double-height entry plaza promotes activity and connects to the courtyard and resident garden above. The proximity to the brand new K Line qualifies it for Transit Oriented Communities (T.O.C.) Tier 3 status. Completion of the building is slated for early 2023.

Funding for the project has come from HCIDLA Land Loan, HCIDLA Proposition HHH, HACLA Project Based Vouchers, LACDA No Place Like Home Funds, CTCAC 4% Tax Credits, and CDLAC Bonds.
