In 2019, HPP partnered with Mercy Housing to pursue an expansion of their existing headquarters located in the Mission District. The campus expansion is primarily an 8-story mixed-use building and its connection points built adjacent to HPP’s current building at the corner of 18th Street and Potrero Avenue.

The campus expansion will provide 74 affordable homes, 50% of which will be targeted for formerly homeless families. The approximately 88,000 sq. ft. 8-story building includes a mix of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartment homes, residential support and amenity spaces, and community serving social services parcel on the lower two floors owned by HPP, to enable expansion of the critical services and programs they provide to the community.
