Casa de
Palma, a 12-room SRO located in the City of San Jose was completed in
1997. The development provides permanent housing for twelve formerly homeless
individuals via the Section 8 Mod-Rehab Program of the Department of Housing
and Urban Development. Casa de Palma was an abandoned building that became
both an eyesore and a problem in the Horrace-Mann neighborhood. Charities
Housing completed extensive renovation of the property with the financial
assistance of Citibank, Federal Home Loan Bank’s Affordable Housing
Program, Lenders for Community Development, and the City of San Jose’s
Housing Department. The end result is a positive addition to the ongoing
neighborhood revitalization efforts.
