Only UC Berkeley students are eligible to live in Fenwick during the Fall and Spring.

Fenwick Weavers’ Village is an apartment complex with 1, 2, 3 and 4-Bedroom apartments. All bedrooms are single bedrooms with the exception of 1-bedroom apartments which can be shared by two people. Six of the apartments are wheelchair accessible, according to ADA requirements, amounting to 14 accessible bedrooms total. Our Weavers can often be seen enjoying rays of sun out on the lawn or in the gardens of Davis Park, a shared community space with our neighboring co-op, Rochdale. It includes a garden and a basketball court. Fenwick is surrounded by a decorated landscape and redwood trees.

One of the features that Fenwick is known for is its proximity to campus as Fenwick is conveniently located just a few blocks from the south side entrance of UC Berkeley and within a block from Telegraph Ave.

Fenwick is also known for its diverse community and its relaxed social environment. There are many social events and workshift parties where members can get to know their neighbors and create community. For that and many other reasons, BSC members choose to live in Fenwick.

A stroll around Fenwick is like a quiet journey through the cooperative past. Historically a rustic village scattered with cottages housing an enclave of spinners, dyers and weavers of yarn, Fenwick now rests its legacy within our comforting complex. Surrounded by redwoods and trailing vines, our co-op apartments have the benefit of being a shady, restful village even with their close proximity to the bustle of UC Berkeley’s south side. Our Weavers can often be seen enjoying rays of sun out on the lawn or in the gardens of Davis Park, a shared community space with our neighboring co-op, Rochdale. The apartments each have single rooms and shared living rooms, with options for sharing in the one bedroom apartments. We are a diverse bunch and our relaxed social environment invites an array of cooperative events and get-togethers. Fenwick is a wonderful community from which to launch a life of independent mind and spirit and to experience the real world possibilities of cooperativism.
