LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) October 28, 2021

LaTerra Development, a Los Angeles-based developer of urban infill mixed-use properties, has acquired a fully-entitled 20-acre site in west Palmdale, CA, and will develop 344 market-rate apartments, the first new apartment development in the job rich area in 31 years. The Landing, as the LaTerra project is called, is located at the northwest corner of Rancho Vista Boulevard and 15th Street West directly across from the Antelope Valley Mall, a 1.5-million-square-foot enclosed regional shopping center.

“Palmdale is one of the fastest growing cities in the country and its business-friendly environment has attracted global leaders in the aerospace, defense and technology industries,” said Charles Tourtellotte, chief executive officer of LaTerra. “More than 20,000 high paying aerospace jobs are located within Palmdale and the adjacent Antelope Valley, with aerospace employers including Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and NASA.

“From 1980 to 2019, Palmdale and the Antelope Valley added 150,000 residents, but no market-rate apartments were developed during these 31 years so there is substantial pent-up demand,” Tourtellotte continues. “Further, the area is No 1 in Los Angeles County for rental growth with many residents making do with old rental units and extended stay hotels.”

Tourtellotte notes that current daily rates at these hotels equate to roughly $3,500+ monthly for a one-bedroom unit, more than $1,000 a month premium over market-rate apartments in the area.

The Landing will include 36 build-for-rent townhomes within its property. Handsome contemporary architecture will give The Landing a distinctive façade. The apartments will incorporate many of LaTerra’s popular design features including a resort pool, pet park and pet wash, playground, a fitness club with state-of-the-art equipment, private terraces, stainless appliances and designer cabinets. Each unit will have a full-size washer and dryer.

Palmdale will have a stop along the future high speed rail line and also has excellent healthcare resources including the well-regarded Palmdale Regional Medical Center, two miles from The Landing.

Construction of The Landing is slated to start in the first part of 2022 with first move-ins projected in 2023.
