SAN CARLOS, CA — Two housing organizations will host a groundbreaking ceremony Wednesday that will commence the start of construction for an affordable-housing development in San Carlos, according to a press release.
Eden Housing and HIP Housing will present the groundbreaking from 10 a.m. to noon at 1232 Cherry St. to kick off the construction of a 33 multi-family unit housing complex known as Cherry Street Commons, which is intended for low-income families.
“I’m so happy to see reliable, experienced nonprofits with excellent architects together in our community,” said Kristen Clements, San Carlos Planning and Transportation Commission Members.
The development will have Mediterranean-style architecture and will include one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. It will also include a central courtyard and children’s play area.
The unit will be all electric in an attempt to support sustainability, and it will be transit-accessible.
Congressman Kevin Mullen and San Carlos Mayor Sara McDowell said they will be in attendance for the groundbreaking.
HIP housing has operated in San Mateo County since 1972 and said it houses nearly 1,200 people a year. Eden Housing is a nonprofit that said it has provided affordable housing for over 55 years and has developed more than 10,000 homes.
Demolition of the existing site began on April 5 and all of the construction is estimated to be completed in December 2026.
