Mercy Family Plaza

Combining the goals of historic preservation and affordable housing, four buildings of the former Southern Pacific Railroad/Harkness Hospital complex were renovated as 36 units of low-income family housing.
Mercy Family Plaza consists of the former Huntington Social Hall, Nurses Annex, Power House, and utility building. The Huntington Social Hall, a two-story structure, was converted into four 3-bedroom apartments around the original terrazzo and tile entry stairs. The Nurses Annex was reconfigured to accommodate 24 of the project's 36 residential units, and the bridge was converted into an airy laundry room. The Power House was converted into eight two-story units. The fourth building, a small, one-story utility building adjacent to the Nurses Annex, was converted for use as a recreation room.
There are 42 parking space available.
