DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Hooghan Hózhó is on a “gateway”
site into Downtown Gallup. The 44-unit, multi-family rental apartments
transform a vacant city block to a mixed-income community. Taking advantage of a challenging site
condition, one level of naturally ventilated structured parking is inserted
into a steep grade over the majority of the vacant block, creating a street
level podium for Hooghan Hózhó Family Housing.
From Coal Avenue, the ground floor of Hooghan Hózhó contains a secured
courtyard, resident facilities, and offices for the property manager and CARE
66 Support Services staff. The housing
is configured in three levels incorporating several unique outdoor courtyards
for residents to foster community, wellness and a sweeping connection to the surrounding
Gallup landscape. Green design makes this sustainable and cost-effective to
operate. This project also contributes
to community revitalization program by connecting a long vacant lot to the vibrant
urban fabric of downtown Gallup and by providing residents with ready access to
jobs, transportation, retail, city services and civic amenities.
