Property records show that Netty, also known as Masoud Netty, has owned part of the half-acre site since 1997. It’s currently occupied by a 1950s-era 6,000-square-foot office building.

Netty is not the only investor eyeing Encino. Earlier this year, Developers filed plans for two new apartment complexes just north of the submarket, a 170-unit building at 7002 N. Van Nuys Boulevard and a 108-unit property at 20126 W. Sherman Way.

Netty’s project will require a zoning variance, since a health club is not permitted under the current zoning.
