AB 987 Affordable Housing Database

Affordable Housing at The Crossing
The Crossing is a 20-acre transit-oriented development with an emphasis on pedestrian activity located within the Navy Site Specific Plan Area in San Bruno. The Specific Plan envisions a cohesive development linking high density residential uses (a total of 1,063 housing units) and commercial uses with transit access to the San Bruno BART Station and bus routes on El Camino Real and proximity to the regional mall at Tanforan. Development at the Crossing began in 2002. Three residential buildings have been completed with a total of 713 units, including:
-
Archstone I Apartments (formerly the Meridian): 300 units, including 60 units with rents affordable to very low income households. The Agency provides subsidies to ensure that the units will remain affordable for 55 years.
-
Archstone II Apartments (formerly the Paragon): 185 units, including 37 units with rents affordable to very low income households. The Agency provides subsidies to ensure that the units will remain affordable for 55 years.
-
Village Senior Apartments: 228 units. 100% percent of the units are affordable with rents affordable to senior households with incomes between 30% and 60% of the area median income. The Agency does not provide subsidies to this project.
The last phase of housing at The Crossing on Parcels 3 & 4 will have a total of 350 market rate condominium units. SNK Development has submitted a building permit application, and constructionis expected to begin in the Spring of 2008.
