Craig Gardens

The development provides 90 – one-bedroom suites on a 1.47-acre site (61 DU/AC). It is conveniently located near shopping on Bascom Avenue near Union in suburban San Jose. In this complex, all suites and commons areas are designed to meet the special needs of seniors. Each 530SF air-conditioned living unit contains a full kitchen, bathroom with a tub/shower, bedroom with walk-in closet, generous living/dining room and a 60SF private deck or enclosed courtyard. The site plan accommodates 64 parking stalls (.71 stalls per unit) with 4 H.C. stalls located near primary entrances. Residents are provided with free “Eco Passes” for public transportation.

 

The common areas include a Waiting Lounge, Reading Room, Vending Room with Support Kitchen, Second Floor Commons (with unit kitchen), and a Media Room with DSL computer stations. The architectural design employs a three-story entrance pavilion as the main focal point in the complex. This element houses most of the common and support facilities. Two residential wings radiate from this pavilion paralleling their respective street frontages thus creating a well-protected interior courtyard.

 

The Courtyard provides areas for outdoor gardening activities including individual planting beds and a central plaza with a small fountain.
