The project is a development proposal for a property on the San Francisco Peninsula in California. The project supports an emerging traditional neighborhood pattern in an important transit corridor. The area is currently developed with strip oriented commercial and residential projects.
The project includes retail spaces and pedestrian ammenities on the ground level. It is intended to form a link in a larger system of pedestrian favored street design expected to emerge as surrounding development activities address the nearby train station and main streets.
The residential component is based on a courtyard model offering variety and identity in a compact and visually rich form that reflects cultural precedents and market preferences.
