UCSF, UC Hastings to Build Student Housing in San Francisco

by Nellie Day December 11, 2015

SAN FRANCISCO — University of California, San Francisco, and University of California, Hastings College of the Law, have signed a letter of intent to build and rehabilitate approximately 1,200 student housing units near the Hastings campus. Under the deal, detailed by the San Francisco Chronicle, the schools would build a new housing complex at 198 McAllister St., the current site of Snodgrass Hall, which would be demolished. Preliminary plans call for the new building to wrap around the corner onto a 1950s-era annex to Snodgrass Hall. This could yield nearly 1,000 units of housing for students. The schools are also considering a renovation of a 252-unit building on McAllister Street known as McAllister Tower. UCSF recently purchased parcels on Minnesota Street in the Dogpatch neighborhood to potentially build approximately 1,000 additional units.

by Nellie Day December 10, 2015

SAN DIEGO — Nonprofit affordable real estate developer Community HousingWorks has announced plans to build a $27 million, unnamed seniors housing community in San Diego that would welcome LGBT seniors.

The community will be open to all seniors, but is intended to create a welcoming community to LGBT seniors. The City of San Diego and the San Diego Housing Commission are providing $7 million for the $27 million complex, which is expected to take about 18 months to build.

Further, 23 percent of the LGBT seniors responding to the survey reported an annual income of less than $20,000 per year. Only 16 percent reported having $100,000 or more saved for retirement.
