Riverwalk Apartments
The Riverwalk Apartments located in South San Diego on opposite banks of Nestor Creek consists of 50 units, which includes 21 three-bedroom, 10 two-bedroom and 19 single-bedroom homes in a cluster of five buildings. The apartments include number of community facilities such as a computer lab, a community room, an onsite laundry, barbeque areas and a tot lot.
The eco-friendly Riverwalk apartment is anticipated to restore the Nestor Creek, which was filled with trash and remained an eyesore. Now the creek has been cleaned and re-planted with local vegetation and used as an open space/walking trail for the community. The other green initiatives implemented in the apartments include energy saving appliances, solar facility to heat the water used for laundry, bio-filtering facility at rainwater overflow, bigger sized windows to cut down the lighting needs, cross ventilation design to do away with mechanical cooling and a landscaping that uses drought withstanding plants.
Affirmed Housing Group has developed the apartments in association with the San Diego Housing Commission. Studio E Architects has provided the needed design for the apartments while Darsono Design, a landscape architect provided the needed landscaping design. Allgire General Contractors has completed the construction of the building.
