The Project

Six new fee-simple homes on a single Culver City lot, and the first SB 684 tentative map approval in the city.

The Culver VI turns one infill lot on Westwood Boulevard into six homes, each on its own legal parcel and each sold individually, like a single-family home, with no HOA. It is Assemble Capital’s first SB 684 project and, to our knowledge, the first SB 684 tentative tract map approved in Culver City.

The project has refinanced into its construction loan and is working through final map and plan check toward ready-to-issue permits. Construction is expected to begin in January 2027 (est.).

The Location

Why Culver City.

One of the most active places in Los Angeles County for SB 684: multifamily-zoned blocks in the flats, strong owner-occupant demand, and a location between the Westside and Downtown. SB 684 in Culver City →

A city of its ownAbout five square miles and roughly 40,000 residents, surrounded by Los Angeles’ Westside, with its own city hall, police, fire and planning department.
Studios and officesHome to Sony Pictures Studios and Amazon MGM Studios, with media and tech offices across downtown and the Hayden Tract.
SchoolsServed by Culver City Unified School District, a draw for the owner-occupant buyers these homes are designed for.
Getting aroundMetro’s E Line stops in Culver City, the Ballona Creek bike path runs to the coast, and Santa Monica, Downtown and LAX are all close.
Downtown Culver CityA walkable core of restaurants, theaters and the Culver Steps, with the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook nearby.
No Measure ULACulver City is outside the City of Los Angeles, so LA’s Measure ULA transfer tax does not apply. Culver City has its own transfer tax.
