Congratulations to Weingart Center Association and Chelsea Investment Corporation on the grand opening of Weingart Towers 1, the largest homeless housing project in Los Angeles history! This historic project, located in the heart of the Skid Row District, is poised to be a valuable asset to the community. Weingart Towers 1 is a new construction project featuring 278 units housed in a 19-story building. These units are specifically designed to provide safe, secure, and dignified housing for unsheltered individuals. The community includes 228 studio apartments and 50 one-bedroom apartments, with three units designated for onsite managers. Notably, 40 units are reserved for veterans. Each apartment is fully furnished and features a full kitchen, private bathroom, heating, and air conditioning. Weingart Towers 1 features amenities like a fitness room, computer lab, career center, library, bicycle storage, laundry facilities, terraces with community gardens, and nearby Metro access. Residents benefit from case management, healthcare, substance use services, educational and employment support, life skills training, and social activities. Local partnerships provide additional medical, dental, vision, and legal services. By offering a stable living environment and access to essential services, Weingart Towers 1 aims to empower its residents and provide a place they can call home. Special thanks to all our financing partners. I could write a novel of all the people and agencies that worked on this project, your dedication to housing is going help transform this neighborhood and positively impact hundreds of lives. I do want to personally thank Alok Lathi for his work.
