Story

Pauline Weaver Senior Apartments is a 90-unit development for very low and extremely low-income seniors located in the Warm Springs Area of Fremont, California. The community serves seniors who earn between 30 percent and 50 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI).

The design articulates a modern architectural style which serves to update the predominantly older office park neighborhood. A single three-story building fronts Warren Avenue and is consistent with the building heights of the commercial neighborhood to the north, and steps up to four stories on the south side of the project. The U-shape configuration creates a safe and tranquil interior courtyard, as well as a sound buffer to Warren Avenue and the railway track. With both active and passive uses, including a future outdoor kitchen and community garden, the courtyard is set to become the gathering place for residents.
