Downtown San Diego offices get new life as affordable housing
- Developers are buying downtown San Diego high-rise office buildings and converting them into affordable housing as demand for affordable units grows.
- A company affiliated with Vintage Housing bought the 19-story Tower at 610 W. Ash for $26 million in September and plans a multi-family redevelopment.
- Vintage Housing also plans to turn 707 Broadway into a 200-unit affordable building, part of a wider downtown trend that includes 101 Ash Street, Tower 180 and 530 B St.
- None of the conversion projects have been redeveloped yet, and the developer has not responded to NBC 7's request for comment.
