Santa Familia

 

 
 
       
Built on a surplus freeway right-of-way, this successful family rental development includes large open space play areas. Originally facing significant opposition from residents of a nearby single-family neighborhood, the development sponsor was able to gain support by providing tours of other projects it had developed.
