The 826 Valencia Tenderloin Center is now open! The new 5,000 square foot location, which is also home to King Carl's Emporium - a supply store for explorers, will provide tutoring, writing, and publishing programs to thousands of kids in the neighborhood. The build team for the project included the collective efforts of Valerie Veronin, Jonas Kellner, MKTHINK, Gensler, INTERSTICE Architects, Office, BCCI Construction Company and over 60 subcontractors and suppliers providing resources either in-kind or at cost.
