贫民区住宅信托基金开发的获得LEED白金认证的星公寓位于洛杉矶市中心,由一栋原有的一层商业建筑改造而来,现为一座多功能大楼,共有102间公寓供曾经流浪街头的人们居住。建筑坐落在第六街和枫叶大道之上,位于贫民区的边缘。该项目在原建筑中增加了社区公共空间,并在一层之上增加住宅层,从而通过改造增加了原一层建筑的容积率,并因此成为了城市化生活的新典范。 Located in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, developed by the Slum Dwellings Trust, the LEED Platinum Certified Star Apartment is a converted multi-purpose building with 102 apartments for homeless people live. Located on Sixth Street and Maple Boulevard, the building is on the edge of the slums. The project added community public space to the original building and added residential floors above the ground floor, thereby increasing the floor area ratio of the original building by retrofitting and thus becoming a new example of urbanization.
