R.D. Olson Construction has broken ground on De Soto, a $62-million, 207-unit affordable housing complex in Woodland Hills. The project advances the Warner Center 2035 Specific Plan’s goals, to deliver more housing, jobs and transit connections amid Los Angeles’ affordability crisis. R.D. Olson is partnering with developer Meta Housing Corporation on its second affordable housing complex within Warner Center, following the first phase of The Alcove. 

“Los Angeles faces one of the nation’s most severe affordable housing shortages, with families and working professionals priced out of safe, quality housing,” said Bill Wilhelm, President of R.D. Olson Construction. “Combined with The Alcove, we’re contributing over 500 units to Warner Center’s transformation into a more inclusive, transit-connected community and addressing both immediate needs and long-term affordability goals.” 

In common with The Alcove, De Soto is a ground-up construction project. However, the seven-story building will only be built in one phase over the span of 24 months, with completion expected in early 2028. The Alcove is currently finalizing construction of the first phase, with the second underway with planning.
