Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Help looking for Pacifica CoHousing?

[Mark Richardson (shanirichardson]

Pacifica,,

Have you tried contacting the local paper, Pacifica Tribune, they used to 
have a web page.  I grew up their, and my parents have been there for nearly 
46 years, and also recall the story about co-housing, was to be located in 
the Sharp Park District of town, near ocean and golf course.  It would be a 
great location, if afforable, my folks bought their home for 10,000, now 
valued at $500,000, how times change.  My agency works with Habitat to build 
homes in other areas, and I'll check in (were mostly in Hawaii with 
Habitate, but some California projects.)
