Pickel, Chief Executive Officer at Brilliant Corners. “Through adaptive reuse projects like Las Palmas, we are utilizing the existing built environment to provide much-needed housing and supportive services to our new residents.

Here they’ll know they’re safe and, most importantly, cared about.”
Connectivity is uncompromised at Las Palmas. The location also puts residents in close proximity to LA DASH bus routes and other public transit options for easy access to downtown LA and the metro region.
“The LACDA is honored to be part of the team that contributed to the creation of 53 fully furnished housing units for individuals who have experienced homelessness,” said Emilio Salas, LACDA Executive Director. “Once a vacant, single-story grocery store, Las Palmas Apartments now offers beautiful housing with access to transportation to help its residents manage their everyday needs.”

Wong, Director of the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health (LACDMH). “Our investment in Las Palmas demonstrates our commitment to ensuring each individual in our care has a place they can call their own, and a community to call home while they start new chapters of their lives with renewed hope and support.”
