Corde Terra Senior
Corde Terra Senior is the final phase of a multi-phase master plan community that redevelops a portion of the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds property into a high density affordable and market rate housing development. The community creates a pedestrian friendly “village” atmosphere where buildings from each phase of the development have distinct characteristics that are weaved seamlessly by complementary architectural styles. Corde Terra Senior accommodates 199 extremely low-income seniors.
Articulated in a four-story building with tiled roof, trellised balconies, and lush landscaping, the Mediterranean style architecture is prominently show-cased on Tully Road. Amenities for this project includes a community room, a library with seating area, a computer room, a full size kitchen, and landscaped courtyards with water fountain surround by seating areas.
