Affordable senior housing to enhance the urban fabric while building relationships in the local community.
Situated near downtown Oakland, 14th Street Affordable Housing is a senior living development that expands and adds additional amenities to the existing Oak Center Towers Senior Community. The two new buildings seamlessly transition architecturally from the existing modern towers to the small-scale Victorian houses on the other side of the block.
The 135,000 SF design thoughtfully renovates and incorporates the existing Greater Cooper AME Zion Church building, allowing residents and parishioners to share a common courtyard, community garden, meeting spaces, and other amenities. At the corner of 14th Street and Market Street, a neighborhood-serving café space and courtyard provide a community gathering space for both residents and the larger community.
