Mayor’s Office of Housing & Community Development Breaks Ground on “La Maravilla”, a New Affordable Housing Community in San Francisco’s Mission District
2970 16th Street will provide 136 supportive housing units, onsite services, and a behavioral health center steps from 16th Street BART.
San Francisco, CA — Today, the Mayor’s Office of Housing and Community Development (MOHCD) joined Mission‑based community organizations, neighborhood advocates, and local development partners to celebrate the groundbreaking of a new 136‑unit permanent supportive housing (PSH) community located at 2970 16th Street in the Mission District.
2970 16th Street will provide 89 studio units and 47 one‑bedroom homes for adults exiting homelessness, along with substantial onsite services and community‑focused amenities. The nine‑story development will include a 1,500‑square‑foot Behavioral Health Services Center, resident case management offices, indoor and outdoor common spaces, and a secure landscaped courtyard designed to foster stability, wellness, and community connection.
“This project embodies every element of its namesake: a marvel. A community asset etched in the history books of San Francisco that will stand with the same strength and stature of the countless community members who fought to have it built,” said Mission Housing Development Corporation Executive Team, Sam Moss and Marcia Contreras. “We are deeply grateful to our co-developer MEDA, the Mayor's Office of Housing and Community Development, Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, and the numerous partners for making this moment possible. La Maravilla is another huge step in preserving the Mission’s cultural fabric and building a future where families, seniors, and residents with diverse needs can remain and thrive in San Francisco for decades to come.”
