AFFORDABLE HOUSING 851 WEEKS ST. SENIOR HOUSING EAST PALO ALTO, CA
This new construction affordable housing development will be one of the tallest buildings in East Palo Alto. When completed, it will have 79-units within a 5-story wood-frame residential construction over a concrete podium. There will be 17-units on the typical residential floor (3rd – 5th Floors). A prominent design feature is a grand stairway leading to the 2nd Floor open space which provides access to a community room, resident services office, and laundry room. The site will also have common sitting areas surrounded by resident gardens and bio-retention storm-water control basins. The massing of the building has been carefully designed with setbacks to make the building appear smaller along the Weeks Street frontage.
