The University of Southern California's Health Sciences University is planning a student housing project for its graduate students. The project, located in Boyle Heights' Hazard Park / Ramona Gardens communities at Soto and Alcazar Streets, is part of the urban redevelopment process that has taken place in Boyle Heights since the 1993 Los Angeles City election. The ongoing urban development of Boyle Heights includes projects such as redevelopment on First Street, the demolishing of the Aliso Village public housing project, and creating redevelopment zones throughout the area.
