In the heart of San Francisco, the Drs. Julian and Raye Richardson Apartments provides 120 permanent, supportive studio units for very-low-income formerly homeless residents, many with mental and physical disabilities. The five-story infill development remediates the site of a collapsed freeway with green homes, street improvements and neighborhood-serving retail, including a social-enterprise corner bakery that provides jobs and training to local residents. Topped with a living roof, photovoltaics, domestic solar hot water, and community agriculture, the sustainable project rated 139 GreenPoints.
