Future Locations

STMC will be three stories of affordable housing and one floor of commercial space, the project provides education department, employment department, Mental Health Clinic, Dental Clinic, and community center with outsource resources. The Upper Room Fellowship Club & Restaurant will be including a recording studio, culinary training for Youth and Transformation Life skills programs with a commercial kitchen. The Club will also include a 100-seat event room which will host dance classes and other community events. Located just two blocks from a Transit Center, the building will be a key component of a new transit-oriented development. The photovoltaic panels on the roof of the building and parking areas are intended to offset 100% of the residential energy use.


The housing will include a mix of studios, one-, two-, three-bedroom and four-bedroom units to serve a wide variety of households for People of Color. Located in a city-designated Urban Village with access to public transit, the building is one component of a larger infill development of four integrated buildings designed to create efficient links between education, business development, and community health resources. The development seeks to ensure that all residents and neighbors have what they need to achieve and maintain health and well-being. 26% of the units will be reserved for homeless and individuals on the State Referral Network; all other units will be reserved for households with incomes ranging from 30-80% AMI. The integration of sustainability goals with the equitable development goals of the project is a fundamental belief of the project team, thereby creating socially-just housing that provides a resilient and regenerative home for all its inhabitants The site features a landscaped pathway leading to outdoor seating and dining at the Upper Room Fellowship Club & Restaurant, recreation at The Shepherd's Battlefield Training Gym, and Shepherd's Manna garden areas.

Next to Shepherd’s Transformation Mansions Communities, Shepherd’s Little Lambs Early Development Daycare and Learning Center, which includes GED Preparation and Testing Center, K-12 Online Educations classroom and testing center and Shepherd’s Elevation Transportation center. STMC Learning Center will be a 6,000-square foot community learning center, located adjacent to the STMC Apartment Homes. The roof-mounted photovoltaic panels produce 2,100 kwh/year, exceeding the building’s energy use by more than 10%. The landscaping of the site includes native low-water plantings and edible plants, such as blackberries, loquats, sunflowers, and herbs. Once established, all plants will be irrigated through captured rainwater alone. Healthy materials were also prioritized and only Red-List free materials were used on the interior of the building, except for the windows.
