2+2: Four new homes climb up Potrero Hill. The design meshes two building types typical to the neighborhood:
flat-roofed with bay windows at the property line, and gabled homes set up and back from the street. Inside, the upper units are barn-like lofts with killer views. Hoping to get these in the ground soon!

Morning sun slices into Mazzola Gardens. Named for prominent labor leader, Larry Mazzola (RIP), the new privately-owned public space gathers 4 separate alleyways into a place of respite between Market & Mission streets. Our design lifts 25 apartments onto thirty-foot V-columns to create a sheltered grand porch overlooking the new playground and gardens. A surprise and reminder that housing density and public space should complement one another.
Thanks to the vision of Strada Investments, and @ua_local38 @thebradysf and the larger #1629market development.

Cortland-henge!
The street grid on the west side of Bernal Heights is rotated ~28 degrees clockwise off of north. Unexpected views and aligned sunsets.
