The Santa Clara County Housing Authority will be hosting a Virtual Open House on April 20th to share final designs for our portion of the former San José Hospital site (675 E. Santa Clara St.). This will be the last community meeting for this project, after which the Housing Authority will submit their development permit application to the City.
We also wanted to share an update about the project. As you may recall, the proposal previously included plans for a new office building for the Housing Authority. However, the Housing Authority has since purchased an existing office building at an alternative site in North San Jose. Based on input from the City of San Jose during our preliminary review process, the Housing Authority is excited to develop two additional housing projects where the previous office building was located. We are excited the Housing Authority will be providing additional affordable homes to the project to help address the County’s housing crisis!
Please refer to the Housing Authority website for a summary of input from the last round of community engagement and an updated FAQ: http://www.scchousingauthority.org/esc.
