San Francisco, California
Arnett Watson Apartments consists of eighty-three apartments for formerly homeless individuals and families, as well as on-site services. The supportive services offices and shared laundry facilities are grouped in a suite – along with a dedicated homework and tutoring room – and are located adjacent to the Children’s Courtyard. This allows parents to supervise their children while receiving help and participating in community life. Additional amenities include a Community Room adjacent to a second courtyard and a landscaped roof deck for resident gardens. The mid-rise building’s traditional design references the Tenderloin neighborhood’s architectural character, including a strong cornice line, bay windows, and street level retail.
