office it was really great to come to the groundbreaking when barry invited all of us to the st. anthony's new dining room and their services and spaces but the 90 units of affordable housing here for seniors that was named air force vourgz but we for the buildings to come up that's a lot of impatience i walked up and down the block and couldn't wait for the day it was phenomenal that building is really a part of the changing the future of tenderloin it is anchored with 11 taylor we have the bonding first church and one of the most come 35k9 churches that help people with their

sleeping quarters and soon be able to go to the ribbon cutting that is one of the problematic liquids for those of you who wouk up and down the street it is now closed (laughter) (clapping). >> thank our tenderloin expand it was part of that and it is on valencia with an the problematic liquor store is going to turn into a youth riding i writing program for young people in the neighborhood with dave (clapping) but we're here to talk about vourgz and the housing that is here i have to say a couple of things about vieira i was fortunate to come into office as vieira continued her 20i678 there are many people in that the room that by vieira vieira

was that fierce person she came in your office and never situated for the low income and seniors for everyone that needed a voice she was tireless when i got the news of her passersby i thought i saw vieira advocating yesterday we've had that experience on her last day fighting for the community and she really summed in an interview she did with gary in 2009 it was part of the story core project in the scombuf you get a sense of her spirit and drive for change she said when they talked in her interview why canned things change it's a simple statement but an important one to carry everyday

many of us get stuck in reality was is possible and not but vieira was pushing the boulders and in that sentence why can't change it is a question she held everyday and fought to make sure the answer was yes so i want to congratulate again, the folks that make that possibly doug schumacher and shaurn and barbara were here everyday the project was a reality so thank you (clapping) of course, to barry for the vision with the st. anthony's foundation and board and staff to enlighten more than a dining hall but a place to find employment and access to tech and clothes and nutrition and housing a really full wrap up approach

to how to make this neighborhood healthier and stronger and safer (clapping) and i'm sure doug will thank everyone there is so many folks that made this possible ultimately from the mayor's office of housing i see joyce crumb from human services and dph preponderance of the evidence e helped and mary go thank you to make sure that is a capacity today and i look forward to seeing the units and the residents who is going lives will be transformed on golden state (clapping). >> so it's true there are an unbelievable number of people from the city side marge go and

wolfgang are partners not only here by on many projects are huk huge humane partners from the mayor's office of housing i've got a long list ann and olsen lee and georgia martin and others from the urban housing and i'm sure there are many others thank you for everything you did to make that possible (clapping) so we're officially 10 percent through the program in case you keep a chart at home the 09 great partner for us is the hud as long as hud for many, many years they've been the key partner for producing housing

particularly for seniors in some ways a sad waterfront momentum this is the last hud 202 projects in california for whatever reason they've chopped did funding that provided the subsidies for this beautiful spot so hopefully that will change some day in not we're here to celebrate and we couldn't have done it without you from the team from hud to say more is larry ferguson the production chief our kids go to state and federal school together and a champion of housing. >> (clapping.) thank you doug before i get going i want to say on a perm note i'm very honored and humbled thanks again doug. >> home is where the heart is

home is where the heart is iemth going to talk about hud's $13 million in section 202 capital that's itself sticks and bricks financing going to the senior avenue, i won't dwell on the project rental assistance that hud will be providing to keep those beautiful apartments affordable to our low income seniors i'm not going to tell us the hard working go contractors who put their hearts into this development and the stimulus to all levels of the economy this project has provided so far i won't go along about the green and sustainable features about the state of the art of this design and this is one of the

last section 202 affordable housing that will be coming online for the foreseeable future i will identify the hud staff who worked with our many partners to make this project a reality those hud staff put their hearts into this and i'd like to point out the hud folks if you get our names called racing rise your hand. (calling names). (clapping) and our esteemed hud council (calling names) and i especially will speak to our seniors because their why we're trial here our seniors will call this place home and i say home because what's being create here 1902 just simply apartments or housing those are homes

you see this concept of a home transcends having a roof over our head and our seniors will live independently in their new homes as long as they're able to distribute and access to a full range of 13069 services in fact the services at vourgz are measure of our nation's heart our nation's love and our nation's respect for our seniors home is where the heart is thank you. (clapping.) >> that's correct larry and thank you for thanking the hud staff i want to thank the hud staff for not only this project but the many projects i'm sure

we'll work together regardless 69 federal proimsz so with that, i want to introduce someone that needs no introduction i think along with supervisor kim the two are incredibly committed to making that city for all as the mayor likes to say a champion of affordable housing for many, many years has worked in this field as a participation and now as an elected it official and policymaker he is something that i think made it clear this is a huge priority not only in this term with that i want to introduce mayor ed lee (clapping). >> thank you doug doug in many ways this is an honor of you and certainly of our wonderful combination between you and st. anthony's i

want to be here because i've known vourgz and want to say thank you to jane kim we both continue this record pace of cutting ribbons and opening doors of opportunity and praising our developers our nonprofits our service provides in this community it wasn't long ago that st. anthony's opened their brand new kitchen more than that a kitchen their entire services a whole floor was being created along with a brand new food center in this neighborhood and we pointed out at this time we pointed to this housing side as the one i wanted to get to as soon as as it was ready to get open you have to be at least 62 year-olds well, i'm 62 this year

laura i joined the ranks of other seniors wanting to make sure that our city is welcome to everyone this is an incredible center over 90 brand new units in the heart of one of the most challenging afterwards our city i know that supervisor kim knows that we've been at oscar pistorius were time after time the needs were identified and this city with its strong foundation can do more and more to help and combine more and more this incredible combination of the stoilgdz and also mercy hours you could also expect they'll produce quality good types of housing for the seniors that as larry said earlier represent the respect that is deserved that is this project we have in your sights the opening

of another senior housing in the bayview and in the western edition all appropriately named as well but i want to be here personally i've known and worked with vieira over thirty years when i began a attorney she was there asia annie is here in her honor i know all the senior housing and services from joint powers authority from our own regional go people who have worked with vieira over many, many, many decades and it is unquestionable she was dedicated i wanted to be here in praise and her daughter's may know my name was mentioned in the household vieira and i go back the first when she asked me to attention. if to eviction and

food and health and housing were you'll part of her entire life for over thirty years when we placed her on the emigrated rights commission it was all about civic engagement and her tenant she was such a strong advocate for immigration she joined me last year to make sure i got out to new york and joined the other mayors to talk about ignition she was there to continue to advocate there were times she brought the air tank and she never wanted to miss a beat so i wanted to be here to praise her and to let us u you know that one of the reasons that drives me so openly supportive of housing is people like her she will consciously be in my memory and never forget

the movement we started about the housing and the seniors and immigration and advocacy for the poor that has been her mantra i want to honor her with every single day that occupied this office of san francisco it's her dna that should be here the name of that for the senior housing and the entities that were put together i'm looking at bobby think that the brothers they've got it their dna in this and other projects throughout the city we're going to do more in fact this is what i know vieira will say mayor ed lee you've got to do more i'm planning to put more in the budget i know that last year's budget vieira and annie said you have to diesel with food security seniors are having a hard time
