The Avanzando housing project will feature 103 rental units — 101 of them designated 'affordable' — near public transit.
California's Strategic Growth Council Thursday awarded $33.7 million in competitive grant funding from the Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities program to a housing project in San Ysidro.
"We are proud to support this project, which also features pedestrian and bike lane upgrades because residents deserve a range of convenient transportation options."San Diego is included as a sub-recipient partner for the award and will receive $320,000 to help develop the surrounding transportation infrastructure for the project, a city statement read.
Additionally, the grant funding will support upgrades to the Metropolitan Transit System, including 10 new bus shelters along the 906 and 907 bus routes and expanded weekend Trolley service on the Blue Line."This funding is a critical step in our mission to create equitable housing opportunities and to build a community where 103 families can thrive for generations," said Lisa Cuestas, executive director of Casa Familiar.
"Tackling the housing crisis requires more than just building homes; it demands a commitment to collaboration and innovation," said Ginger Hitzke, president of Hitzke Development."This project exemplifies how we can come together with community partners like Casa Familiar and the city of San Diego to create lasting, sustainable and equitable housing solutions.
