"The project marks a new chapter for Openhouse and Mercy Housing California, which previously partnered on similar projects at 55-95 Laguna Street, around the corner from the new building. When 1939 Market Street opens, it will add 187 affordable homes to the existing stock of 121 units on Laguna Street, creating the largest affordable housing campus for LGBTQ+ older adults in the nation."
"by pairing affordable, service-enriched housing with climate-conscious design and transit access, 1939 Market will offer homes for LGBTQ+ seniors while contributing to a healthier, more resilient San Francisco. This AHSC award affirms our shared commitment to sustainability and equity and provides critical resources to make this vision a reality. We are honored to collaborate with Openhouse on this transformative project and deeply grateful to the Strategic Growth Council and the Department of Housing and Community Development for their support in making this community possible."
On December 11, 2025, Mercy Housing California and Openhouse secured AHSC Program funding administered by the California Strategic Growth Council and the Department of Housing and Community Development. The development builds on a prior partnership at 55-95 Laguna Street and will add 187 affordable homes to the existing 121 units on Laguna Street. The combined campus will be the largest affordable housing campus for LGBTQ+ older adults in the nation. The new facility will serve households at 15%-60% of Area Median Income and include office and programmatic space. The project pairs affordable, service-enriched housing with climate-conscious design and transit access to advance sustainability, equity, and resilience in San Francisco.
