In this episode, Scott joins host Cherise to discuss our West Harbor Project at the Port of Los Angeles.

MLK and PCH is a transformative project that reimagines a busy urban corridor in Long Beach, creating an inviting haven for seniors. With 67 units—34 designated for formerly homeless seniors—the development offers a peaceful courtyard shielded from the street, complete with community gardens and a covered workspace. What was once a vacant lot now becomes a welcoming space where residents can gather, grow, and connect, bringing new life to the neighborhood.
