LOS ANGELES, CA – March 13, 2025 – The Downtown Women’s Center (DWC), in partnership with Daylight Community Development and GTM Holdings, and with support from key partners including Apple and government partners at the state, county, and local levels, proudly announces the groundbreaking of Rosa’s Place, a seven-story Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) community in Skid Row.

January 20, 2025 - The recent Eaton Fire in Altadena caused significant damage to homes, but swift action from firefighters and first responders helped prevent even greater losses. The Agave building, though impacted, was saved from total destruction thanks to their efforts and the resilience of modern construction materials. Our construction site to the south played a crucial role in stopping the fire’s spread, protecting nearby neighbors from harm. While Agave sustained some damage, we are already back under construction, moving forward with rebuilding. We extend our deepest gratitude to the firefighters, first responders, and everyone who contributed to protecting our community.
