Cypress Point will provide critically needed affordable housing in rural unincorporated San Mateo County. Situated above the Point Montara lighthouse, this site is significantly sloped and offers incredible views of the Pacific Ocean. The site has acted as an open space amenity for neighbors in recent years, and the proposed design preserves the site perimeter for walking trails and a vista point.  Units are clustered into handsome buildings of two to six homes each, reflecting the scale of the adjacent residential neighborhood. An extensive community engagement process provided critical input from neighbors, impacting the program as well as the site design. Consistent with the Local Coastal Program Policies, the project will minimize environmental impacts and will maximize sustainable measures.
