North Fair Oaks – On a warm summer morning, local officials celebrated the groundbreaking for Monarch at Redwood, a six-story apartment complex that will provide 86 affordable homes, including apartments reserved for residents with special needs.
Located just off the busy Middlefield Road corridor in North Fair Oaks, Monarch will offer studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Residents will live within easy reach of transit, shopping, services and jobs.
The name Monarch, chosen to reflect change, resilience and hope, underscores the project’s purpose: turning a dusty lot into homes for families priced out of the market and residents who need extra support to live independently.
“I’m so proud that Monarch at Redwood is in my district and in my backyard,” San Mateo County Supervisor Lisa Gauthier said Friday to a crowd of housing advocates, North Fair Oaks community members and local civic leaders.
“In a region where affordability is becoming increasingly rare,” Gauthier said, “this project shows what’s possible when the County, community and development partners come together with shared values and purpose.”
