SAN DIEGO-With affordable housing still a dire concern in the city, construction has recently begun on a $32-million, mixed-use redevelopment project here that will deliver 96 affordable units for seniors upon completion.

Known as the Renaissance at North Park, the development is rising in the North Park Redevelopment Project Area, on the block bounded by El Cajon Boulevard, 30th Street, Meade Avenue and Kansas Street, with a portion of the parcel once part of the former Aztec Bowl site. Design plans call for a four-story, mixed-use facility fronting on El Cajon Boulevard and 14 three-story townhomes on Kansas Street.

The mixed-use facility will house the 96 affordable apartment units, which will be reserved for residents with incomes of up to 50% of the area media income. Additional components will include 6,000 sf of commercial space and 6,000 sf of either retail or community center space. A pedestrian plaza is also being built, which will provide a link between El Cajon Boulevard, shops and 187 new parking spaces. A separate, $6-million townhome development that will be comprised of 24 market-rate units has also been incorporated into the project area footprint.
