Construction

If you drive by the northeast corner of Adams Boulevard and Grand Avenue in historic South-Central L.A., you’ll see that construction is well underway on a beautiful mixed-use complex aptly named “Adams & Grand.” It’s a whole new era for South-Central L.A., and 20/20 Plumbing & Heating, Inc. is in the vanguard, supporting this and other developments in the region as a preferred plumbing and HVAC contractor.

Los Angeles-based developer Cityview cleared away the out-of-date commercial buildings that occupied the site to revitalize the neighborhood with a contemporary seven-story building featuring 296 studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments above approximately 5,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space and a 390-car garage. The two-story podium garage will also provide spaces for 332 bicycles. The design by Humphreys & Partners Architects includes a colorful structure with balconies and multiple rooftop decks from which to savor urban views and L.A.’s year-round balmy weather. Residents will also enjoy luxury amenities that include a club room, fitness center and swimming pool.

Cityview will set aside 25 units as very low-income affordable housing, with an additional three units priced for moderate-income households.

Completion of Adams & Grand is on pace for early 2023.

Adams & Grand is one of several large multifamily developments that are currently being built in the area after the city approved a plan to allow taller, mixed-use buildings to be built in a half-mile radius around five train stations in Palms, Rancho Park, Sawtelle, Mid-City and Cheviot Hill. The complex is located one block east of Metro’s LATTC/Ortho Institute Station, and may soon be neighbored by a 15-story apartment tower planned to replace a parking lot on Flower Street. Transit-oriented construction continues to rise along the route, and there will likely be more development in the area.

Founded in 2003, Cityview strives to “think big, be creative and deliver beyond expectations” by creating impactful projects that “transform cities into communities, people into neighbors and apartments into homes.” Cityview is a privately-held real estate investment manager that owns and operates multifamily investments in the Western U.S. It focuses on developing and operating attainable and market-rate multifamily properties in urban and suburban markets that exhibit outsized employment, income and rent growth, where barrier to entry is high due to significant undersupply and low housing affordability.

To date, Cityview has 5,267 units under management totaling $2.4 billion. More than 600 units are in active renovations and another 1,500-plus units are under development.

The firm is led by a team of seasoned professionals with an average of more than 20 years of industry experience. Minority ownership provides a foundation for the firm’s corporate culture and community involvement.
