This new community center is in the unincorporated community of Cherryland, a historically underserved area sandwiched between San Lorenzo, Castro Valley and Hayward. Working with MIG, Noll & Tam facilitated multiple community workshops and steering committee meetings to develop a wish list and priorities that include a large multi-purpose room, a catering kitchen, a small library, preschool area and classrooms. The design complements the nearby Meek Estate, a historic mansion previously surrounded by orchards.
“I think it’s safe to say this will be one of the most beautiful centers in our district, if not in the area.”
