A new affordable housing complex featuring on-site support services for families transitioning from homelessness opened Wednesday in San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood.
The City Gardens complex at 333 12th St. adds 200 units to the city's stock of permanent supportive housing, which is housing that includes long-term rental assistance and support services ranging from education and job training to health care. The new complex increases the number of such units in the city for families by more than 20 percent.
San Francisco Supervisor Matt Dorsey said the project would give families exiting homelessness a place to call home. 'The opening of City Gardens will provide secure housing for families in San Francisco at a time when it's badly needed. It's more than just a building, it's a sign of our commitment to helping our most vulnerable neighbors,' Dorsey said.
