WHAT’S HAPPENING AT TODCO GROUP RESIDENCES
Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @TODCOGroup! ▶️
We proudly own and manage eight properties in SoMa that provide affordable housing to over 1,200 residents. From our beginning in the early 1970s, we have fought to ensure our neighborhood has enough affordable housing, and we will continue to do so. Our buildings are beautifully designed and well-tended, evidence of the viability of affordable housing as an anchor for the SoMa community. We pride ourselves on caring for it residential buildings and, most importantly, for the people inside.
6th on 7th Photography Workshop Releases Their New Book — SECRET SAN FRANCISCO!
“The Sixth Street Photography Workshop shares the art and skills of photography with residential hotel tenants, those living without housing, and others living below the poverty line. The Workshop’s mission is to awaken creative and artistic expression within individuals and to help those who are otherwise un-empowered to develop a voice. Photography becomes a vehicle for analysis and expression so that workshop participants have both an outer voice for their community as well as an inner voice for themselves.
What distinguishes Sixth Street Photography Workshop from similar projects is that it involves adults. Participants are challenged to communicate the richness of their perceptions and understandings. In theWorkshop, traditional subjects for photography control the tools of representation, focusing them on the outside world and on themselves. The work of the members is a creative and documentary expression of poor and disenfranchised adults.” – Tom Ferentz
THE UNTOLD STORY: How Yerba Buena Become A Real Neighborhood
“TODCO drafted a Yerba Buena Neighborhood Plan that called for all the necessary components of an actual neighborhood: a supermarket, safe streets and sidewalks, local shops, health clinics, even a community garden.”

LAST MONTH’S SPOTLIGHT @ TODCO
