Nancy & Stephen Grand Family House - Architect Plans

You’ve heard a lot of talk about the new Nancy & Stephen Grand Family House at Mission Bay, but have you seen the plans yet?

Here are some photos of the architect’s 3D model, as well as the latest architectural drawings for the new house.

The new building will have 80 bedrooms: floors 2-5 will each serve 20 families per night, split into 2 “neighborhoods.”  Each “neighborhood” will have its own living, dining, cooking, and laundry space.  There are several bedroom sizes, dependent on the size of the family staying, and all bedrooms will have en-suite bathrooms!  We are very excited about the private, outdoor courtyard on the second floor, as well as the exercise room and teen rooms, and the parking lot on the ground floor.

We’ll be just a few blocks from the new UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital, and we can’t wait to open our doors!

If you haven’t yet donated to our Capital Campaign, please consider making a gift through our Calling All Angels campaign page at http://indiegogo.com/projects/calling-all-angels
