SkyLINE

Affirmed Housing

SkyLINE exemplifies the thoughtful integration of multifamily affordable housing, transit access and community serving space.

Developed by Affirmed Housing and designed by AO, to transform the underutilized portion of the Rancho Bernardo Transit Center into a vibrant residential community. The project delivers 100 affordable apartment homes situated above a two story parking podium with five levels of residential units, along with an integrated office component and replacement parking to support continued MTS transit operations. SkyLINE was permitted through the City of San Diego’s 100% Affordable Executive Order program. The site featured unique design constraints including existing grade beams, retaining walls, and steep slopes. Close coordination was required between the structural, geotechnical, and architectural teams to optimize the site and deliver an efficient and constructible design.
