BrownStone Unveil Plans of 6-Story Affordable Housing Building in Mid-Wilshire

In the heart of Mid-Wilshire, Los Angeles, a transformative initiative is taking shape. Brown Stone Capital, in collaboration with Kevin Tsai Architecture, is spearheading a proposal for a groundbreaking residential project at 800 South Lorraine Boulevard. Kevin Tsai Architecture brings its visionary touch to the project, aiming to redefine the skyline with a six-story building. This structure will house not just residences, but a community built on affordability and inclusivity.

A Blank Canvas on Lorraine Street

Nestled near Lorraine Street and 8th Street, the chosen parcel stands as a blank canvas, awaiting transformation. The proposed six-story edifice is set to breathe life into the surroundings, offering 70 residential units designed for both low-income and moderate-income households.

Where Studios Meet One-Bedrooms

Brown Stone Capital envisions a tapestry of diversity within the building, featuring a mix of studios and one-bedroom apartments. Additionally, a manager's unit, available at market rates, adds a unique touch to the project. Noteworthy is the decision to forgo onsite parking, a bold move that prioritizes community spaces over cars.

Paving the Way for Affordability

This visionary project aligns with the Mayor's Executive Directive 1, utilizing incentives to surpass zoning limitations. By catering to the needs of low-income and moderate-income households, this initiative not only addresses housing concerns but also sets a precedent for community-centric development. While the construction timeline remains undisclosed, the anticipation for positive change in Mid-Wilshire is palpable.
