About Us
Puente de la Costa Sur, through its affiliate Puente Housing Solutions (PHS), LLC., works toward housing solutions for unincorporated South Coast communities in San Mateo County, California. PHS’ first project is to preserve farmworker housing in Pescadero, CA through the acquisition of the former Pescadero Union High School, built in 1925, which was converted to farmworker housing in the 1980s. Puente is committed to making the necessary improvements for safe and dignified living while keeping these units affordable for community members for years to come. The building currently contains family living units with ensuite kitchenettes and bathrooms, as well as single units that share a communal kitchen and two bathrooms (one each for women and men).
