This development will include 40 apartment homes comprised of one-, two-, and three-bedroom units, each with a storage locker. Community amenities include covered parking, a community room, a computer lab, a laundry room, a tot lot, and a barbecue area. Arbor Green staff will provide homework assistance, life skills training, and cooking classes for residents. The affordable community will serve households earning between 30%-60% of Los Angeles County's AMI.

The development will be designed to achieve LEED Gold certification. Major sustainable elements include rooftop photovoltaic panels and solar water heating systems. The project has been underwritten using the California Utility Allowance Calculator to ensure the development optimizes energy efficiency. Resident utilities are estimated to be $1 to $3 per month.

James Silverwood , President of Affirmed Housing Group, states, "Arbor Green was designed to facilitate a strong sense of community among residents, and to provide innovative solutions to energy usage. Resident comfort, safety, and economics are always our first priorities. We are confident that families will appreciate all that this environment offers."
