Legacy Village at San Bernardino Valley College

A New Model for Community Living

Legacy Village at San Bernardino Valley College is a 15-acre, mixed-use housing development that brings together student, workforce, and community living in a single, integrated environment. Located directly across from campus, the project includes four, four-story buildings delivering 452 student beds, 180 workforce housing units, and neighborhood-serving retail, creating a vibrant residential community that supports a diverse population of students, educators, and working professionals.

Designed for Everyday Life

A mix of dormitory-style and apartment-style units offers flexibility for a range of needs, including single students, students with dependents, workforce housing, and affordable community housing. The site is organized to create a series of outdoor spaces that support gathering, movement, and a sense of place. The ample shared amenities, landscaped open spaces, and pedestrian-friendly circulation foster connection and daily interaction. Architectural massing and materiality balance durability and cost-efficiency with moments of identity, using shading devices, layered façades, and transparency to enhance comfort and livability.

A Model for Inclusive Growth

More than housing, the project represents a collaborative approach to addressing affordability, access, and community equity. By integrating student and workforce housing with public-facing retail and shared open space, the development strengthens connections between campus and city while creating opportunities for long-term economic and social impact. The result is a community designed not just to house residents, but to support them, academically, professionally, and personally.
