Legacy Square

Project Description

Legacy Square, a pioneering community in the heart of Santa Ana, transforms an underutilized parcel of church-owned land into 93 homes while investing $10 million in community transit amenities, a park and other improvements to the surrounding neighborhood. The 100% affordable community provides one-, two- and three-bedroom homes for individuals and families earning less than 60% of the area median income. Thirty-three homes are reserved for previously unhoused or extremely low-income individuals. Legacy Square is located on Santa Ana Boulevard adjacent to an Orange County streetcar station and delivers 1,750 square feet of ground-level flexible space for community investment. A 3,800-square-foot community center serves as a neighborhood hub for events and activities provided through the Hope through Housing Foundation and Mercy House.
