SAN JOSE — An affordable housing project that would produce more than 100 residential units could come to San Jose, near shopping centers and a train stop, according to city documents.
The residential project is proposed for 1207 North Capitol Avenue in the Alum Rock neighborhood of East San Jose, according to the proposal filed with the planning department. The Danco Group, a real estate company based in the Humboldt County city of Arcata, is leading the project.
“The 1207 North Capitol multifamily housing project addresses the critical need for affordable housing while fostering a sense of community and well-being among residents and the broader neighborhood,” Danco Group states on its website.
The project would include 129 affordable housing units, according to a report on the Danco Group’s website. It would be built on the site of a vacant lot.
“The 1207 North Capitol multifamily housing project is a cutting-edge development in San Jose’s Alum Rock neighborhood,” Danco said in the web post.
The apartment complex is a transit-oriented development, according to the developer.
“Located along a major public transportation axis, with easy access to a nearby light rail station, the project prioritizes connectivity,” Danco said on the website.
The residential development includes open green spaces that would become amenities for the community, according to the project proposal.
“The project includes over 13,000 square feet of common spaces such as lounges, community rooms, fitness facilities and outdoor open spaces,” Danco says on its website. “These spaces promote physical health, recreation and socialization, fostering human connection and a strong sense of community.”
The project is located near two shopping centers and restaurants, as well as single-family homes.
“Through careful planning and a focus on creating a vibrant residential community, the project will be a foundational part of the Alum Rock community in San Jose,” Danco states on its website.
