The site is located next to a San Diego Trolley Station and near Presidio Park, Grant Elementary School, UCSD Medical Center, Mission Hills Library and a market. Amenities include a large community room with a computer lab, a courtyard with a bar- becue area and children’s playground, and bicycle storage. Mission is certified as LEED Platinum and was honored with the Ruby Award for Project of the Year in San Diego and Best Re-use of Land by MFE.
