Bay Area Rapid Transit has announced that construction is scheduled to start this summer on the Lake Merritt BART Station redevelopment in Downtown Oakland. Crews will start by replacing a surface parking lot with a seven-story affordable housing project and a landscaped paseo. Oakland Planning Commission is scheduled to review the updated phasing for the project tomorrow afternoon.
The preliminary application has been filed for an eight-story apartment complex at 585 17th Street in Downtown Oakland. The plans will create nearly a hundred homes at the corner of 17th and Jefferson Street, two blocks away from Oakland City Hall. San Francisco-based DM Development is the developer.
The City of Oakland has officially approved plans for the 40-story residential tower at 1431 Franklin Street in Downtown Oakland. The proposal is poised to become the tallest skyscraper in Oakland, rising just nine feet taller than the Ordway Building. Tidewater Capital is the developer.
