Updated plans have been published for the five-story affordable project at 705 Veterans Boulevard in Redwood City, San Mateo County. The project is looking to add affordable senior housing just outside of the city’s downtown core. Hayward-based non-profit developer Eden Housing is the project sponsor.

The 65-foot-tall structure is expected to yield around 68,700 square feet, including 54,270 square feet of housing and 14,440 square feet for the ground-floor garage. Parking will be included for 36 cars and 41 bicycles. The project will include 76 units, including 42 studios, 33 one-bedrooms, and one two-bedroom unit for the on-site property manager.
The 75 affordable units will be rented to prospective residents age 55 and older. The units will be deed-restricted, with 54 for very low-income households and 21 for low-income households.

BAR Architects & Interiors is responsible for the design. Illustrations show a fairly well-designed podium building with four floors of housing atop the garage. The ground floor will also include the lobby and bike room. The second floor will include a podium-top courtyard, a community room, a fitness center, and residential service offices. Additionally, the top floor will include a corner terrace overlooking Brewster Avenue and Veterans Boulevard.

The half-acre property is located at the corner of Brewster Avenue and Veterans Boulevard. Future residents will be a few minutes away from the Redwood City Caltrain station by bicycle, or over ten minutes on foot. The estimated cost and timeline for construction have not yet been shared.
