Rio Vista Apartments is a 50- unit multi-family project located in the northeast
neighborhood of Glassell Park, in Los Angeles, California. It’s part of the first joint-use
development in the County of Los Angeles where the land is shared, between an
affordable housing development and an Early Education Center for The Los Angeles
Unified School District.
Common areas shared between the sites include a community room and a playground
for students and residents. Extensive on-site services are offered to residents and
community members through Abode Communities’ Beyond Homes program, which
operates in conjunction with 10 in-kind service providers.
