Among the diverse residents of 1180 Fourth Street in San Francisco’s Mission Bay neighborhood are 150 low income, very low income and formerly homeless families and individuals—including about 260 children. The building’s shared spaces are designed to bring residents together in ways both casual and intentional. Residents meet each other, get their mail, say hello to property management staff, and play together after school in the generous, day-lit lobby and garden courtyards. At the center of the block, the upper courtyard offers open greenspace for recreation and social gatherings with easy connectivity to the common room, family daycare units, community garden with ping pong table, and an exercise room. After dusk, the west side of the courtyard features an embedded screen for community movie nights. 📷: @brucedamonte
