On a site vacant since the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, 474 Natoma is the newest addition to San Francisco’s SOMA Redevelopment Area. This high-density residential development provides much needed new affordable family housing with a mix of 60 one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. In an effort to serve low income families 40% of the units are 2 or more bedrooms whose size averages approximately 1,200 square feet.
The nine-story mid-rise building features sustainable building strategies and has achieved GreenPointRated certification. The building also incorporates a public artwork installation on the exterior along the length of the elevator shaft. The development is poised to be a catalyst for neighborhood revitalization along the 6th Street corridor.
