A new residential project has been proposed for development at 1505-1519 South Veteran Avenue in Westwood, Los Angeles. The project proposal includes the development of a six-story multi-family residential building, replacing two small apartment buildings built in the 1930s and 1940s.
Brennen Hakimian is the project applicant. Warren Techentin Architecture (WTARCH) is responsible for the design concepts.

The project site consists of two parcels and nine rental units. The project proposes to construct a new six-story residential building offering 26 apartments and an accessory dwelling unit. The apartments will be offered as a mix of one-bedroom, two-bedroom, three-bedroom, five-bedroom, and six-bedroom units. A basement garage with a capacity of 39 cars will also be developed on the site.
The project applicant has requested entitlements using Transit Oriented Communities incentives to achieve a taller, denser structure than otherwise permitted under zoning rules. In exchange, four of the new apartments would be reserved as deed-restricted affordable housing at the extremely low-income level.

The estimated construction timeline has not been announced yet.
