Safe, stable, supportive environment where residents can put down roots

This expansion and renovation to a three-story affordable housing building adds 40 new dwelling units in a 6-story addition. The project involved remodeling 40 existing dwelling units and all the common spaces (e.g., new integrated front entrance, reception desk, elevator,  bike storage area, and an upgraded community kitchen). The renovation also includes new staff office space and office space for support services and property management providers. Programs provided to residents include finding work, building life skills, learning job skills, and managing substance use disorders and mental health issues.

The six-story addition complements the horizontality of the original building. The ground floor contains a glass pavilion that allows visual transparency through the building. Apartments come completely furnished with linens and personal care products to support residents who are transitioning from homelessness.
