The four-story complex will include 72 units, ranging from studios to three-bedroom units. Affordability will range for households earning between 20% and 60% of the area median income. Additionally, 18 dwellings will be designated for individuals or families who have experienced homelessness, 15 units for veterans through the VASH voucher program, and 10 units are set aside for people with disabilities through the Mainstream voucher program. Residential support services will be paired with the Regional Center of the East Bay.
Pyatok Architects is responsible for the design of a podium-style complex. The V-shaped floor plan bent around a ground-level courtyard. The outdoor area will feature a playground, seating, and a small dog run. Surface parking will be provided for residents along Ruby Street and Crescent Avenue.

The property is located along Ruby Street between Crescent Avenue and A Street in the census-designated Castro Valley, the fourth largest unincorporated area in the state. The site is close to the De Anza Park and Japanese Garden in Hayward. The site is ten minutes on foot from two grocery stores and nearby restaurants. Future residents will be equidistant from the Castro Valley and Hayward BART Stations.
Construction started on the project in 2023, with build-out work finishing in late 2024. Last week, Eden Housing hosted a grand opening ceremony for the Crescent Grove, welcoming in the first guests.
