Insiders’ Development Tour– The Kelsey Civic Center San Francisco
Wednesday, August 5, 2026, 4 – 6 PM PDT

The Kelsey Civic Center, 240 Van Ness Ave. , San Francisco CA 94102 (next to City Hall)

Join us on August 5 for a unique tour of The Kelsey Civic Center, a disability forward, low carbon community of 112 households in the heart of San Francisco. Learn how The Kelsey works as a co-developer with best-in-class developers like Mercy Housing to build mixed-income, mixed-ability communities where people with and without disabilities can live independently, in community, in homes they can afford. Hear the inside story from Louisa Bukiet and Fiona Ruddy about the development’s groundbreaking inclusive design features and how this project leveraged innovative sources of capital and captured unrealized land value.

Attendance is limited so register early!

Light snacks will be available and optional no-host gathering at fun Hayes Valley bar afterwards.
