About Mercy Family Plaza

Combining the goals of historic preservation and affordable housing, four buildings of the former Southern Pacific Railroad/Harkness Hospital complex were renovated as 36 units of low-income family housing. Mercy Family Plaza consists of the former Huntington Social Hall, Nurses Annex, Power House, and utility building. The Huntington Social Hall, a two-story structure, was converted into four 3-bedroom apartments around the original terrazzo and tile entry stairs. The Nurses Annex was reconfigured to accommodate 24 of the project's 36 residential units, and the bridge was converted into an airy laundry room. The Power House was converted into eight two-story units. The fourth building, a small, one-story utility building adjacent to the Nurses Annex, was converted for use as a recreation room. There are 42 parking space available. 1 Studio, 1 One-bedroom and 1 Two-bedroom Affordable Rental Units are available at 1509-1599 Hayes Street. Rents range from $1,966-$2,753 per month.

Neighborhood

Rent your apartment in the Panhandle neighborhood and enjoy San Francisco's Golden Gate Park any time you want. The neighborhood is only a block wide for much of its 10-block length, so most neighborhood rentals are within steps of Golden Gate Park's panhandle and the trails leading into the heart of that famous open space.

Find your neighbors at a picnic area in the panhandle or at a number of attractions at Golden Gate Park, such as the tranquil Japanese Gardens, the zoo, or the California Academy of Sciences. Explore the park's Spreckels Lake, where model boat lovers launch their creations. Head to the western edge of the park and find Ocean Beach roughly four miles away.

You'll find Tony's Cable Car Restaurant, a local burger hangout complete with old-style neon signs, less than a mile from the panhandle. The closest shopping malls include the Westfield San Francisco Centre and the Potrero Center, both about three miles east.
