old garage becomes new workforce housing

550 O’Farrell is transforming an underutilized 2 story parking garage in the heart of the San Francisco Tenderloin District into much needed housing. Unit sizes will vary with 35 one-bedrooms, 62 two-bedrooms, and 14 three-bedrooms. Of the 111 homes, 22 will be affordable housing units.

This structure, which is only a few streets from both the Civic Center and Union Square, was planned with walkability and transit in mind. This mid-block site’s new development will also help to revitalize a stretch of O’Farrell Street that hasn’t seen significant repair in decades.

Demolition permits were recently filed and SF YIMBY featured this project in a recent article, check out the link below for the full article.
