Arden Way Affordable Housing Project

The California Military Department identified the former Arden Armory as excess to their future needs. The subject property (the “Site”) is located at 440 Arden Way, Sacramento, California. The Site (APN#: 275-0134-008-0000 and 275-0134-007-0000) is approximately 1.079± acres in size, is level and buildable, and has complete utility service access. At current, the Site consists of a 13,295± square-foot Armory structure built in 1949.

The City of Sacramento owns three adjacent parcels at the corner of Oxford Street and Arden Way (APN 275-0134-004, -005, and -006), currently developed with a former library building and meeting space that has been closed for more than twenty years. The City owned properties have been donated to the State for the project to support this housing development. Additionally, within the neighboring Woodlake Park, there is an existing play structure and a Community Center Clubhouse that could be used in conjunction with this housing development for community amenities and programming, services, job training, etc. with some capital improvements to the existing clubhouse structure like: accessible restroom(s), community kitchen, repaint, flooring/electrical repairs, security lighting, and/or raised planters.

440 Arden Way conveniently sits next to the Sacramento Regional Transit stop, bus stops, and bike lanes. In efforts to reduce greenhouse emissions, this convenient location promotes mass transit, making the complex a modern-day affordable housing community where residents will be offered transit passes and enjoy secure on-site bike storage.
