VENICE AND THE HISTORIC OAKWOOD COMMUNITY

The Center for Pacific Urbanism collaborates with members of Historic Venice and the Oakwood community to further efforts of self-determination through analyses of US Census Bureau and Office of the Tax Assessor data, an inventory of housing stock by decade and building type, Zoning trends, and alternative scenario development. The normative state as defined by the community is the guiding principle, the rest is history.

HOMELESS OFF STREET SANCTUARY

As Los Angeles continues to face a worsening housing scarcity and unaffordability crisis, we must determine and implement policies that will help our neighbors avoid homelessness by providing adequate shelter and housing both in the immediate as well as permanently. This study provides a comprehensive list of potential sites for off-street homeless shelters in Los Angeles as well as an inventory of precedents from various cities that should be considered by local policymakers in addressing homelessness in our communities.

HOUSING PRODUCTION TARGETS FOR COMMUNITIES IN LOS ANGELES
