A single-family home on North Second Street in Alhambra is set to be replaced by a three-story building with six apartments. The city's Planning Commission approved it 6-0 on October 20, 2025.
What's proposed
The building has six apartments, rooftop open space, and a partly open garage on the ground floor. The apartments are two-bedroom, two-bath units, from 1,105 to 1,593 square feet.
PDS Studio, a design firm in Arcadia, drew the plans. The lot is 8,150 square feet and zoned RH, Alhambra's residential high-density zone.
How it got here
The project went to the city's Design Review Board in April 2025. In October, the Planning Commission approved a Planned Development Permit, PD-24-03. That permit is how Alhambra reviews the design and size of a building like this in the RH zone.
The city found the project exempt from further environmental review as small infill housing, under CEQA Class 32.
Where it stands
Approved as of October 20, 2025. No building permit activity has turned up since.
What this means if you live nearby
This part of North Second Street is already zoned for apartments, so the project didn't need a rezone or a variance. If you own an RH-zoned lot nearby, this project shows the path the city used: design review and a Planned Development Permit.
