Property Description
Eden Housing is developing a new 130-unit apartment community in the Diridon Station Area of San Jose. The site is located a ½-mile from Diridon Station at the corner of Auzerais Ave and Delmas Ave, in a dynamic area close to multiple transit stations where the City and Google are both investing significant resources. Solaire Apartments will provide homes to households that are in threat of being priced out of the housing market, but are essential to a strong and diverse community, including the lower-income workforce, and individuals and families who have experienced homelessness in the past.
Solaire Apartments will reserve half of its units as permanent supportive housing to address the homelessness crisis in the County of Santa Clara. Those units will be supported by Section 8 project-based vouchers and supportive services will be provided by the County’s Office of Supportive Housing. The remaining units will be restricted to households earning 50–60% of Area Median Income (AMI).
The project will be built on a 1.02-acre L-shaped site and the development will include:
- Outdoor space with fitness loop, community garden, and drought-tolerant landscaping
- Community room
- Computer learning center
- Fitness/yoga studio
- Bicycle storage room
- Laundry room
- On-site supportive and resident services
- All electric utility service with no gas infrastructure installed
- Solar photovoltaics system
- EV charging stations
