The Arlington has been completed at 3300 Washington Boulevard in Arlington Heights, bringing new affordable housing to a former oil drilling property. The four-story development was built by Morley Builders for Thomas Safran & Associates. BSB Design is responsible for the architecture.
The project includes 84 rental apartments in a 104,000-square-foot building. The homes are reserved for low-income to extremely low-income households, with half of the apartments designated as permanent supportive housing.

The building also includes ground-floor retail space and on-site parking. The development was approved using density bonus incentives, which allowed the fully affordable project to exceed the site’s base zoning limits. Renderings show a podium-style building with brick veneer, light-toned exterior panels, large windows, ground-floor storefronts, and residential courtyards set within the building mass.
Resident amenities include a fitness center, club rooms, outdoor courtyard areas, and family-oriented open space. Images shared after completion show interior common areas, a kitchen space, landscaped courtyard seating, and a children’s play area.
The project is targeting LEED Gold certification. The completed building adds new income-restricted family housing along Washington Boulevard, near the boundary between Arlington Heights and the surrounding Mid-City neighborhoods.
Thomas Safran & Associates has also delivered affordable housing projects in other Los Angeles neighborhoods, including Venice and Panorama City.
