MULTIFAMILY Affordable Housing
Alvarado Gardens Phase 1 is the first half of a transformative mixed-use affordable housing development on the former San Pablo City Hall site along San Pablo Avenue. Phase 1 delivers approximately 50 new affordable rental homes, including a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom units designed to support families, seniors, and individuals with limited incomes. The community incorporates modern, energy-efficient design, resident amenities, and thoughtfully landscaped outdoor spaces.
Phase 1 also introduces the initial portion of the project’s ground-floor commercial frontage, activating the streetscape and contributing to a walkable, vibrant urban environment. The development integrates seamlessly with several historic on-site buildings, including the Alvarado Adobe and Blume House, preserving cultural assets while creating new opportunities for community engagement.
As of 2025, Phase 1 construction is complete and residents have begun moving into the newly built apartments, establishing the foundation for the full build-out of the Alvarado Gardens community.
