Full Description

On November 12, 2025, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors (Board), approved and authorized the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), or her designee, to execute a Purchase Sale Agreement (PSA) for the 27,641-square-foot property located at 2615 W. 8th Street in the MacArthur Park neighborhood of the Westlake Community Planning area in the City of Los Angeles and to establish and approve an affordable housing project as discussed below. The purchase is part of the CEO-HI (CEO-Homeless Initiative) Land Bank Pilot Program. The Board established the Pilot Program on June 14, 2022, to create new opportunities for affordable housing in areas experiencing and set to experience rapid gentrification and displacement. The project would include an approximately seven-story (78-foot-tall) affordable housing development with up to 160 units and 4.5: 1 FAR; parking would be provided according to code; the project could also include 1,400 square feet of community-serving commercial space and an approximately 2,700-square-foot community room and/or amenity space primarily to serve project residents. The property would include minor landscaping and low level security lighting. Two small ornamental trees and small shrubs would be removed from the existing parking lot. There are seven large Ficus street trees that abut the site that could be impacted by the project. Subsurface parking is not anticipated. The proposed building foundation design and construction method have not been identified but could include localized foundation piles extending to some depth. However, the quantity of earth that would be disturbed is anticipated to be relatively minor. Construction is anticipated to take about 24 months. The project site is a City of Los Angeles Housing Element site and thus with more than 20% of the units to be affordable to lower income households the development of housing would be a by-right project in the City of Los Angeles (Government Code Section 65583.2(i)). The site would remain as a parking lot until development of the housing project started.
