"We are creating a place where our elders can live with dignity," said Janelle Chan, CEO of EBALDC, at the groundbreaking ceremony for the affordable housing project.
The $96 million senior housing project was funded through a blend of state, private dollars, and loans from various finance authorities, emphasizing community collaboration.
This project aims to address historical wrongs by transforming a parking lot at Lake Merritt BART station into a vibrant community space for seniors.
The redevelopment project will include 557 apartments, with a significant portion designated as affordable housing, supporting the broader goal of transit-oriented development.
