Veranda Project [ https://public.govdelivery.com/accounts/CAFREMONT/signup/37320 ]
Construction Begins for New Development with Affordable Housing in Centerville

Construction of the Veranda Project, a new mixed-use development in Centerville, has started. The project will occupy a 1.9 acre site comprising three separate lots, 37447 to 37471 Fremont Boulevard. The site, previously occupied by three privately owned buildings, was recently cleared for construction.

The Veranda Project will consist of eight buildings and feature the following:


* A total of 60 for-sale townhome-style condominium units with private garages for parking
* 9 for-sale affordable housing units for low- and moderate-income households who have not owned a home within the last three years
* 8 units with accessory dwelling units
* 2 ground-floor commercial spaces covering 1,100 square feet
* 6,000 square feet of community open space

The Veranda Project will be located within an existing town center area and will further the City’s General Plan policies that emphasize development close to transit. The project will offer convenient access to the Centerville Train Station, AC Transit, and pedestrian-oriented commercial uses. The project is expected to be completed in 2025.
