San Jose: Affordable housing project with 64 units for homeless people opens downtown

Solaire Apartments is located at 425 Auzerais Ave. near Diridon Station.

A new 130-unit affordable housing project with 64 apartments for formerly homeless residents has opened in downtown San Jose near Diridon Station.

“We are helping residents of the Solaire Apartments and thousands of others across the county fulfill their own potential by providing critically needed housing,” Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors President Susan Ellenberg said in a statement. The county also uses Measure A funding for a program to identify homeless people ready with the necessary paperwork to move quickly into new affordable projects like Solaire. The program helped 187 people a month last year.

“We aim to make the process as efficient and stress-free as possible for individuals and families to get the support they need and the dignity of secure and affordable housing,” Consuelo Hernández, director of the county’s Office of Supportive Housing, said in a statement.
