ANTONIA MANOR

The Antonia Manor was an expiring-use Section 8 building acquired by TNDC in December 2000 with the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency under its “Preservation” program to preserve the affordability of the property’s 134 units. Financing was through tax-exempt bonds, as issued by the Redevelopment Agency along with a letter of credit from Citibank, and 4% Low-Income Housing Tax Credits. The majority of the residents in this 100% Section 8 building are seniors and the other residents are non-senior persons with disabilities. The building received an upgrade to all its major systems including electrical, heating and ventilation, plumbing, and its two elevators, as well as significant structural improvements. The units received a “kitchenette” that includes a sink, refrigerator, microwave and storage cabinets. TNDC provides a social worker and activities coordinator to support the resident population.
