The Shirley Chisholm Village in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset neighborhood hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony last week, celebrating the completion of a first-of-its-kind project for San Francisco. The 100% affordable units are designated as a community for educators working in San Francisco, with the goal of making housing more accessible within the city limits.
A little over a week ago, the new affordable housing project called Kiku Crossing celebrated its Grand Opening.

Construction has officially started for the six-story affordable housing project at 3300 Mission Street in San Francisco’s Mission Bernal corridor. The groundbreaking ceremony was held last Thursday with the developers, Mayor London Breed, State Senate Scott Weiner, and Supervisor Hillary Ronen.
