First Private MF Complex Breaks Ground

VERNON, CA—Meta Housing Corp. has broken ground on the city’s first-ever private development, Village Vernon Park. The $12.8-million multifamily development, located at 4675 E. 52nd Drive, will have 45 affordable housing units targeted toward families. Meta Housing has partnered with non-profit Community Home Builders for this project.

“The City of Vernon selected Meta Housing as the developer for this project based on our deep expertise in developing affordable apartment communities, as well as our mission to build communities that enrich the lives of our residents,” Chris Maffris, VP of Meta Housing, tells GlobeSt.com. “These factors aligned well with the city’s goal of providing quality, service-enriched housing for workers in the County of Los Angeles. The City of Vernon had determined that this site was optimal for housing based on its proximity to neighborhood amenities, including parks, schools, bus stops and a grocery store.”
