New Asia project located at 772 + 758 Pacific Avenue in the heart of the oldest Chinatown in the nation is developing a 15-story 100% affordable housing for extremely low-income seniors in San Francisco. The project is planning a total of 175 affordable units comprised of studios and 1-bedroom units. In order to achieve a 15-story high-rise, the project is going through establishing a Special Use District (SUD).

On the ground floor, there will be a double-height commercial space for a Chinese Banquet Hall with a mezzanine space to re-introduce the banquet hall that the new project is replacing. Above the commercial space will be residential floors interspersed with a Manager’s unit, laundry rooms, community room and property management and resident services offices to support the residents of the building. The entire project will aim to achieve affordability for extremely low-income seniors in the Chinatown area and beyond, not to exceed 30% AMI, which will require additional rental subsidies beyond the LOSP units as well as SOS units. The project has applied for the HUD202 grant, and if awarded, will come with Project Rental Assistance Contract for 55 units. Once federal, state, and local funding are all awarded, the project could start construction as early as 2027 and complete construction by fall of 2029.

Pier 70 is a new construction project serving at least 100 low-income families and individuals, including 10 units for individuals referred through MOHCD’s Plus Housing program. CCDC and Young Community Developers (YCD) were selected as co-developers for the inclusionary housing project. Brookfield Properties is the master developer for the larger 28-acre mixed use development. The Site is in San Francisco’s Dogpatch neighborhood. The existing port facility site has a long-standing history as a location for shipbuilding.

CCDC and YCD aim to alleviate the displacement of BIPOC residents in Dogpatch and surrounding neighborhoods through a thoughtful community engagement process and the number of units serving a mix of income levels. The project is in early pre-development and will commence construction in 2026.

Transbay 2 Senior Housing (TB2W) will be a newly constructed 9-story affordable housing building for low-income seniors (including 30 formerly homeless households) with 150 units (+1 manager’s unit) developed by Chinatown CDC.

Onsite resident services will be provided by CCDC staff including intensive case management for qualifying residents. The building is slated for completion in the winter of 2025 as one of two affordable housing projects on Block 2 of the downtown Transbay neighborhood.

The building will have a shared pedestrian walkway with the affordable family building next door (developed by Mercy Housing California), and residents will enjoy robust public transit access, living just blocks away from the Salesforce Transit Center and the SF Embarcadero. TB2W will boast a private roof deck overlooking the to-be-built Transbay Block 3 Park, as well as a row of townhome-inspired stoops and patios connecting residents to the adjacent park activity. TB2W will also have a private ground floor terrace for residents, as well as semi-public courtyard that is accessible to the surrounding Transbay community.
