The Appeal, Brought by the “Concerned Residents of Glencoe Avenue,” Contended That the Project Was Inconsistent With Zoning Regulations
According to Urbanize LA, the Los Angeles City Planning Commission has upheld the approval of a proposed multifamily residential development near Lincoln and Washington Boulevards in Del Rey, dismissing an appeal from neighboring homeowners opposing the project.
The appeal, brought by the “Concerned Residents of Glencoe Avenue,” contended that the project was inconsistent with zoning regulations and would negatively impact surrounding properties. The group also argued for additional environmental review. However, a staff report found no evidence supporting these claims and recommended denying the appeal, according to Urbanize.
LaTerra Development’s plan for a six-story building at 4112 Del Rey Avenue includes 210 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments and a five-story, 282-car garage. The project, designed by TCA Architects in a California Coastal modern style, utilizes density bonus incentives to exceed zoning limitations, with 18 units designated as very low-income affordable housing, as reported by Urbanize.
The Planning Department issued an approval letter late last year, endorsing the project. The design features amenities such as a courtyard, gym, and rooftop pool. According to an environmental study adopted by the City of Los Angeles, construction could begin as early as September 2024 and conclude by August 2026.
