benefits of TOD, and examines some current Bay Area transit oriented development

Housing Hero Awards 2009

Thank you to everyone who came out for the 7th Annual Housing Hero Awards Ceremony on Wednesday, September 23. We had a great turnout to honor this year's housing heroes: Vice President Christina Olague, President Ron Miguel, and the 2009 SF Planning Commission.  

SFHAC recognizes exceptional individuals with the Housing Hero Award for their commitment to creating, advocating, and promoting housing solutions for ALL San Franciscans. We acknowledge and celebrate their contributions towards helping solve our City's housing crisis. This remarkable group exemplifies the mission and goals.
