A new vision for living in the heart of Truckee.
Tahoe Truckee Collective introduces a thoughtfully envisioned residential community in Old Town, one that brings together modern mountain design, local character, and a clear sense of purpose.
Set on a site once home to a motel, the project reimagines a long-underutilized parcel as a vibrant, design-forward neighborhood. Four buildings along Jibboom Street will come together to create a collection of residences and ground-floor commercial space, designed to feel connected to both the surrounding landscape and the rhythm of downtown Truckee.
The architecture draws from Truckee’s layered history, embracing a more organic, “collected over time” character, while incorporating contemporary materials, clean lines, and a strong emphasis on livability. Subtle references to historic structures, including the old railroad hotel, are paired with modern elements and a commissioned mural, grounding the project in both past and present.
Beyond design, Tahoe Truckee Collective reflects a deeper commitment to the community. A significant portion of the residences are dedicated to local and workforce housing, aligning with the Town of Truckee’s broader vision for sustainability and long-term livability. Thoughtful infrastructure, including EV-ready parking and efficient site planning, further supports a forward-looking approach to mountain living.
Currently in its early stages, Tahoe Truckee Collective offers a first look at what’s next for Truckee, intentional, design-driven, and rooted in place.

Why Housing for All Matters
"Our housing crisis is an existential threat to our state’s future, and we can’t shy from the hard fights it’ll take to create more affordable homes for Californians – including pursuing legal challenges to make sure the housing laws we pass in Sacramento translate to real, new units in local communities across our state.”
Governor Gavin Newsom on CaRLA vs San Mateo
“Our fight for affordable housing is inextricably tied to our fights for racial, economic, environmental, and social justice. This appellate decision upholding the constitutionality of the Housing Accountability Act is a major victory for all Californians.”
Attorney General Rob Banta on CaRLA vs San Mateo
