County's compact lot subdivision ordinance on a single parcel of land at 925 Brannick Avenue in East Los Angeles. Plans call for razing an existing single-story, two-bedroom house, clearing the way for the construction of four single-family homes.</p></em><br /><br /><p>The plan is one of a series of novel attempts to deliver to market the much-needed stock of "missing middle" housing brought on by <a href="https://archinect.com/news/article/150324914/on-the-disappearance-of-american-starter-homes" target="_blank">developer recalcitrance</a> and new zoning laws that incentivize multifamily development more heavily. The residences range between 885- to 1,118-square-feet and will be constructed using an insulated panel system that <a href="https://archinect.com/firms/cover/150330073/taller" target="_blank">TALLER</a> says is 30 percent stronger than typical stick-framed designs.</p>
<p>"[The] Brannick Homes are a deliberate investment into a working class neighborhood with deep roots in Los Angeles," the firm describes in a statement. "The homes are state-of-the-art projects that prioritize contextual aesthetics, sustainability, great design, and—of course—attainability. They have been thoughtfully wrought to maximize efficiency in order to keep building costs low, allowing for the new homes to enter the market at below-median prices and still remain profitable to our investors."<br></p>
