FEATURED RESEARCH

POTENTIAL LAND SUITABLE FOR NEW TEMPORARY OR PERMANENT HOUSING IN THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES

121 government owned sites that are potentially suitable for temporary or permanent housing have been identified within the boundaries of the City of Los Angeles; five sites that are ostensibly owned privately yet are listed as government sites in the Tax Assessor’s roll are reported as additional opportunities. The set of 126 sites has been parsed into three tiers: 1) 46 top choices that are also City of Los Angeles owned, 2) 10 top choices that are owned by a government entity other than the City of Los Angeles, and 3) 70 other sites that are owned by either the City of Los Angeles or another government entity, or are listed as government sites by the Tax Assessor’s roll, that are potentially suitable.
