Each year, through the ULI Housing Awards, projects across the country showcase their impact on the industry through financing, policy, and partnership innovation. Winning projects highlight replicable strategies that can scale and expand housing supply nationwide. Each webinar in this ULI member-exclusive series will feature one of the five winners—showcasing their project case studies, pro formas, policy angles, financial strategy, and community engagement. 

Market Street Village is a 229-unit property in San Diego that was acquired to directly support San Diego's homelessness reduction efforts and provide affordability in one of the most expensive markets in the country. Panelists will discuss acquisition as a strategy to preserve affordability faster and more cost effectively than ground-up construction, the novel partnership between the owners and the city's homelessness response system, and the model for social impact funds to deliver affordable housing to combat homelessness in high cost markets in as little as 90 days.
