LA PUENTE PARK APARTMENTS
The client of this affordable housing complex for families took over the 134 units and hired Bell Design Group to re-imagine the community into a fresh and functional home for its residents. The scope included a complete facade re-design, new unit interiors, new mechanical systems, accessibility improvements, a community room, and extensive landscaping. The City of La Puente was in the midst of revitalization, and this project served as a gateway to the new identity it was seeking.
The re-syndication and rehabilitation of the property was completed in Spring 2018. The project – the largest of its kind in La Puente –featured a seamless flow of temporary relocation assistance as each building was renovated.
