A multifamily housing proposal is moving through Los Angeles County review for the unincorporated community of West Whittier-Los Nietos, where project materials outline a new five-story apartment building at 7914 Broadway Avenue. The filing is tied to a report prepared for the Los Angeles County Regional Planning Commission, framing the project as a County-level entitlement request rather than a city planning case.
Application information identifies Marisela Garcia as the applicant and describes a 60-unit residential program in a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts. The proposal would be constructed on the Broadway Avenue site just north of Washington Boulevard, replacing existing conditions at the property with a single new apartment building.

County materials indicate the development would require a zone change and would utilize density bonus provisions. As presented in the application, the affordability component includes seven deed-restricted units designated for very low-income households as part of the density bonus package.
Design work is attributed to Design Plus Services, and the set of renderings released with the planning materials illustrates a mid-rise building organized around a podium-like base, with repeating exterior bays and open-air balcony corridors along portions of the structure. The images show a facade palette that alternates between lighter and darker wall fields, with a darker vertical element marking a circulation core.

If approved, the project would add new rental housing along the Broadway Avenue corridor under County jurisdiction. The planning report also situates the site near the Washington Boulevard and Norwalk Boulevard intersection and references planned transit investments in the surrounding area, which are cited as part of the broader context for growth in the West Whittier-Los Nietos area.
