Cupertino seniors jump into affordable housing lottery

Cupertino’s latest mixed-use, affordable housing project is almost ready to open its doors.

The Westport Senior Apartments will add 267 homes to Cupertino’s inventory. The development, on roughly eight acres at 21267 Stevens Creek  Blvd., will be a mix of 48 below-market-rate apartments and 131 market-rate apartments for residents 62 and older and 88 townhomes and row houses. Residents will start moving in in early March.

Idaho-based Pacific Companies developed the project, which will be managed by Buckingham Property Management. It will also include 20,000 square feet of retail space on the ground floor.

Older adults applying for the affordable apartments will be selected via a lottery conducted by the city and property management, which ends Feb. 16 at midnight. Jennie Reed, regional director for the property manager, said the development has already received 137 entries into the lottery for the affordable apartments.

Reed said the development’s mix of affordable housing and market-rate housing will appeal to the community’s needs.
