A new affordable housing project has been proposed at 501-525 West Whittier Boulevard in Montebello. The project proposal includes the development of two buildings featuring residential units, commercial spaces, and onsite parking. The site was previously being developer with a hotel and market-rate apartments.
Cesar Chavez Foundation (CCF) is the property owner. Gonzalez Goodale Architects is responsible for the design concepts.
The project proposes to construct two buildings offering a total of 132 affordable housing units. Commercial space spanning an area of 10,100 square feet will be developed on the ground floor. Parking space with a capacity of 150 vehicles will be developed on the site.
Renderings reveal a four-story, 69-unit structure facing Whittier Boulevard which was previously slated for the hotel. A three-to-four-story edifice containing 63 apartments will front 6th Street to the west. Both structures include podium-level amenity decks, among other common features.
Previously, in 2015 plans were approved for a 130-room hotel and 45-unit apartment building.
The project is being processed through an addendum to the environmental study previously conducted for the hotel and market-rate housing development, rather than a new report. An estimated construction timeline has not been announced.
