Past Project Spotlight: Leighton Ave Townhomes

Another past project spotlight-Leighton Avenue Townhomes! In 2009, JKA was retained to design one of the first projects in Los Angeles utilizing an ordinance allowing for subdivision of larger multi-family parcels into fee simple “small-lot” subdivision townhomes. Eight, three story, 1,350 SF townhomes were located between a busy commercial boulevard and are certified as “sustainable” under the Enterprise Green Communities Program. Utilizing a contemporary sensibility, the overall character directly acknowledges the Craftsman style of the area, which facilitated acceptance of the increased density by the neighborhood.
