THE EVOLUTION OF AN IDEA FOR A CHANGING WORLD

Elevating Properties sees an opportunity to create affordable, long-term solutions to elevate the lives of those under-served in our society while increasing the value of under-utilized properties. Elevating quality affordable housing and undervalued property, in the depth of a parking stall (18 feet), a Class An apartment unit can elevate above on a parking lot corner, increasing NOI by 6-10%. What started at parking lot street corners, Elevating Properties has developed a modular construction solution that can provide flexible housing solutions today for any location to address our changing world’s needs.

Working with Elevating+, Steinberg Hart, and the City of Oakland, Pluribus developed housing solutions to help address exponential growth of the homeless population in the bay area. Pluribus developed a prototype housing unit concept that would provide quality living environments, whether temporary or permanent, that can be used above surface parking lots and requiring minimal disruption. Once in full-scale production, the design solution would also be able to provide disaster or refugee housing quickly. With a site selected in the City of Oakland, a model was developed to create group home environments, providing single room occupancy housing for up to 300 homeless individuals.
