5528 McCulloch Avenue
Eleven detached two-story condominiums on McCulloch Avenue in Temple City are in the final stretch of construction — a years-old entitlement that cleared its last procedural hurdle with a June 2024 Council vote and had stucco going up by May 2026.

What's proposed
Eleven two-story detached condominium units, offered in a small set of house plans, built across what were originally two adjoining parcels — 5524 and 5532 McCulloch Avenue, now addressed together as 5528 McCulloch. The layout includes guest parking and a shared driveway serving the units.
What it's replacing
The project consolidates two medium-density residential parcels on McCulloch Avenue into a single 11-unit detached condominium subdivision, recorded as Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 82695. The design was reviewed and approved years earlier by the city's Architectural Design Review Consultant under 2019-era development standards, which is why the 2023 extension request involved no design changes — only a deadline reset.
How it got here
The tract map's original approval predates the records reviewed for this piece; what's documented is a February 2023 Planning Commission hearing that extended the map's expiration to April 2024, with staff noting the project remained governed by the 2019 standards it was originally approved under. Temple City's own Housing Defense Fund correspondent submitted written support ahead of the June 2024 Council hearing that approved the final subdivision map, clearing the way for building permits.
Where it stands
Under construction. Building permits were issued by October 2025, and the city's 2025 Housing Element progress report counted the project among units permitted and under construction that year. By a May 2026 city update, the Community Development Director described the units as having their stucco scratch coat applied, with completion a few months out — consistent with a direct sighting of active construction on site in September 2026.
What this means if you live nearby
This is a small, quiet example of what Temple City's medium-density zoning already allows without a hearing fight: two ordinary residential lots consolidated into 11 detached homes, moving from paper to occupancy over several years with no recorded opposition. Expect the units to be finished and occupied within 2026.
