603 A Street, Hayward CA

The affordable housing development at 603 A Street in Hayward, California, is an 80-unit, senior-focused project by Novin Development and Christian Church Homes (CCH). Designed as a transit-oriented development (TOD), it targets low-income individuals, providing one-bedroom units with supportive services in a location adjacent to the Hayward BART station. The project was approved in 2022 under California Senate Bill 35 (SB 35) and a density bonus, allowing it to bypass discretionary review. Publicly announced in early 2023, it remains in development as of mid-2025, with leasing not yet underway. This project aligns with Hayward’s 2023–2031 Housing Element goals to increase affordable housing near transit hubs and serves as part of the city’s broader efforts to meet its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).
