A developer has plans for a new five-story, 29-unit apartment building to rise in West Los Angeles on Westwood Boulevard, according to a planning case posted by the city of Los Angeles this week.
The planned development is being led by property owner Westwood Investments 26 LLC, a company managed by Kamran Tavakoli that county records show acquired the project site in 2019 for $1.25 million. It would rise at 1951 – 1957 Westwood Boulevard, replacing a 3,760-square-foot commercial property also holding one apartment unit with 15 studio apartments, 13 one-bedrooms, and one three-bedroom in about 16,500 square feet of new construction, plans show.
The developer is seeking Tier-3 project incentives under the city’s Transit Oriented Communities Incentive Program, including a 22-foot height increase to a maximum height of 67 feet. Under TOC rules, three apartments would be reserved for extremely low-income households.
Also involved in the Westwood Boulevard plans are architect California Development and Design and project representative Shapour Shajirat of company DCC.
The new community would provide 27 automobile parking spaces and 35 bicycle spaces, along with more than 3,000 square feet of open space that includes 1,830 square feet of common space at the roof level.
