Site 6: Fairfax Market
Address: 2040 Sir Francis Drake Blvd
Potential Range of Housing Units: 20-40
Rationale: This portion of the larger overall site would not displace the existing Fairfax Market and commercial tenants. There has been a long-standing vision for this site to become affordable housing and it has been listed as a potential site in previous housing element updates. The site has received specific development interest in the past. The parking lot is somewhat under-utilized but portions would still be preserved for a shared parking arrangement.
Constraints: Programs and/or policies would need to be implemented in order to avoid displacing existing commercial tenants. The site would need to meet updated requirements in order to be used again as a potential site in this 6th Cycle Housing Element. This site may require re-zoning in order to accommodate housing units on the ground floor.
