Community-Focused Living Spaces

It’s not exactly cohousing, but the apartments described in this article are part of a growing trend of living spaces designed with community in mind — a trend we at Phoenix Commons are proud to be pioneering!

Visiting Venice

Even when halfway around the world, our community members always seem to find themselves in the vicinity of bridges and desserts 🙂

Wishing Tim and Leslie a safe journey on their Tour of Italy!

The Antidote to Loneliness

The San Francisco Chronicle wrote a great article about our PC community. We think we’ve found the antidote to aging as well. Life is always buzzing around here, keeping us active and excited!

Construction Update: February 24, 2016

As we enter the final stretch of construction, the contractor is focusing on detail work that will really make the building feel like home for the community. With the hot tub now installed, the atrium (Pic 1) is an inviting place for our members to relax, soak in, or take advantage of the tub’s therapeutic functions such as swimming and rowing. Two palm trees tower above the waterfront patio (Pic 2), providing both shade and an oasis-like ambiance. The building’s facade (Pic 3) boasts a modern aesthetic that is as cutting-edge as the community’s social architecture.
