City leaders and community stakeholders marked the groundbreaking of Phase 1 of the Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza redevelopment, launching construction on one of South Los Angeles’ most historically and culturally significant sites. The groundbreaking marks the start of demolition of the former Sears building and site preparation for 92 new residential homes, the first phase of a multi-phase, city-approved plan to revitalize the 42-acre Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza site. 

The project is being implemented by the Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza Partnership, in coordination with the City of Los Angeles and public agencies, with development partners Harridge Development Group, Access Industries, Inc., Atlas and SilverPeak. 

“South Los Angeles has gone far too long without meaningful new housing development,” said David Schwartzman, president and CEO of Harridge Development Group. “There is tremendous demand for quality housing in this part of the city, and this project begins delivering the new homes that people have been waiting for.”
