Mercy Housing

You can’t talk about Mercy Housing's success over the last 43 years without mentioning Sister Lillian. As a member of Women Religious, she has always been a compassionate advocate for #AffordableHousing, and her legacy continues today. The community created in her namesake, which opened in 2021, continues to be a model in creating supportive environments for families and individuals emphasizing thoughtful design and sustainability.

As part of this year's?21st Annual Architecture + the City Festival, we invite you join us this Wednesday, September 11th from 1 - 3 PM, for the event "Affordable Housing Tour: Sunnydale’s New Community Center | HOPE SF." For tickets and more event details, visit: https://lnkd.in/eht2pmAy __ At the south edge of the city, Sunnydale HOPE SF is one of San Francisco’s biggest redevelopment projects, replacing WWII-era public housing with more than 1,770 new affordable and market-rate homes; new streets and infrastructure; 3.5 acres of new green space; and extensive retail and community uses. Opening in September, the new Sunnydale Community Center will be at the heart of this reimagined neighborhood and serve as a new gateway into McLaren Park. Combined with the adjacent Herz Recreation Center, the Community Center will form the core of a new campus that supports connections to nature and provides a safe, lively and nurturing environment. An inclusive hub for a diverse community, the Center will include a Wu Yee Children's Services child-care center and a Boys & Girls Club along with a range of shared neighborhood spaces—a community kitchen, multipurpose rooms, meeting rooms, and a recording studio. Project architects from LEDDY MAYTUM STACY Architects – Ian Ashcraft-Williams, AIA, NOMA and Sara Sepandar, AIA, LEED AP –?provide a facility tour as well as insight into the design and construction of the building, which used mass timber construction as an innovative, durable, low-carbon alternative to concrete and steel. There will also be a housing tour led by David Baker Architects. Note: The housing tour will be a hard-hat tour, with full PPE (personal protective gear) provided. Hard, closed-toed shoes are required. Construction is expected to finish in February 2025. __ Owners:?Mercy Housing, Related California , Boys & Girls Club of San Francisco, Wu Yee Children's Services Architecture:?#LeddyMaytumStacy Builder:?Swinerton?/?Timberlab Structural:?KPFF Consulting Engineers #communitycenter?#mclarenpark?#masstimberconstruction #masstimber #aiasf AIA San Francisco Center for Architecture + Design, San Francisco
