According to pictures sent in by an e-mail tipster, a small church near the border of Koreatown and Pico Union was recently demolished, making way for a 40-unit affordable housing development known as Vermont Manzanita. The apartment complex is being
developed by the West Hollywood Community Housing Corporation (WHCHC), and will reserve fifteen of its units for at-risk
families with children under the age of five. The developer has partnered with
the Children's Institute, which shall act as lead service provider for future tenants. Plans call for a five-story edifice, designed by
Hatch Colasuonno Studio, featuring first-and-second-floor landscaping, a children's play area, a barbeque pit, and a tenant community garden. Located at 1233 South Vermont Avenue, Vermont Manzanita is WHCHC's second project within Los Angeles city limits.
Founded in 1986, WHCHC can claim a portfolio of more than one dozen affordable housing communities throughout the greater Los Angeles region. Although they primarily focus on properties in West Hollywood, WHCHC has previously undertaken developments in Glendale and East Los Angeles. Perhaps their most visible project is
the Patrick Tighe-designed Courtyard at La Brea, a five-story structure located on Santa Monica Boulevard.
