Star Apartments | Michael Maltzan Architecture | Los Angeles, California


Nearing completion in downtown Los Angeles, the Star Apartments demonstrate one of the most important innovations in affordable housing: Using prefabricated units to cut down on construction costs and development time. The six-story structure developed by the Skid Row Housing Trust will serve as transitional housing for residents of the area, which has a high concentration of social services. The ground floor will offer retail and the second story will be focused on public areas and meeting rooms for residents.
