Wall Raising Ceremony at Shorebreeze Apartments

The team at ESE was excited to attend the Wall Raising Ceremony for the Shorebreeze Apartments in Mountain View, CA.

We are very excited to work with MidPen Housing again on this Affordable Housing project.

On Tuesday August 13th, Mountain View Mayor Lisa Matichak, and Housing Trust of Silicon Valley CEO Kevin Zwick, joined other city and county leaders to celebrate new construction of affordable housing at Shorebreeze Apartments being developed by MidPen Housing.

The expansion of Shorebreeze Apartments is a response to the tremendous need for affordable workforce housing in Silicon Valley, one of the nation’s most expensive housing markets where many workers are being priced out. Originally built in 1980 and acquired by MidPen in 1997, Shorebreeze has long provided 120 affordable rental apartment homes for families and seniors. With the work currently underway, 108 of the original apartments will be renovated and 62 brand new apartments will be constructed, resulting in a net gain of 50 affordable homes – all on the original site footprint.

DEI and the Built Environment

DEI & The Built Environment

On July 27th, our Founder, Thuy Fontelera, participated in a Commercial Real Estate Women (CREW) Silicon Valley event through their DEI Task Force Team. The event centered around DEI & The Built Environment. The built environment is undergoing a remarkable transformation as DEI requirements are becoming deeply ingrained in nearly every development project. The event presented an incredible opportunity to learn from industry experts who shared their experiences, industry trends, and invaluable insights. Together, they explored how each perspective contributed to building a more equitable future for generations to come.
