The proposed development, Montgomery Plaza 1, will feature 126 residential units. Updated plans reveal that the tower will have 21 residential levels. Retail space for a restaurant/cafe on the ground floor is also planned. The high-rise will feature a rooftop deck spanning an area of 4,100 square feet. Other on-site amenities on the roof include a large terrace, a fitness center, a barbecue space, and seating areas. Up to 83% of the 126 residences are expected to be affordable.
The building facade will rise to 213 feet, and the rooftop will have great views of the Valley, the hills, and the city.

It’s a blessing and a curse for downtown San Jose that the airport is so near as to limit the height of tower construction.
Quite the change from the dilapidated single-story house that’s there now.
Just curious: is there any parking? It doesn’t look like there’s any significant amount above ground, and the lot seems small enough that underground parking would be limited, I’d think…
