An affordable housing complex is all ready for occupancy at 849 North La Brea Avenue in Hollywood, Los Angeles. A ribbon cutting ceremony held on May 6 marked the debut of The Pointe on La Brea, a new affordable housing complex. The project replaced auto repair garage on the site.
EAH Housing is the project developer. FSY Architects is responsible for the designs.

The project consists of a five-story building which features 50 apartments above at-grade parking for five vehicles. Those apartments, all in studio floor plans, include 25 units reserved for residents facing chronic homelessness.
Renderings reveal a contemporary podium-type building, which features a community room, case management offices, a community kitchen, a public courtyard, and a rooftop deck.
At the exterior, the building is highlighted by a large mural on its northern face featuring a depiction of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Funding for the project include a $9 million capital loan from Los Angeles County, including $5.2 million in No Place Like Home Program funds, $2 million in Measure H funds, $740,000 in county general funds, and $1 million in Mental Health Housing Program funds.
