I am totally against building anymore construction in this small parcel of land. We currently have too much traffic as it is. I can see now what is going to happen as it did with the new apartments on Foothill two blocks from Seminary. The building is a mess too many broken down vehicles just parked if this construction is approved well good bye Oakland. We try our best to keep the 2600 block clean and keep our grounds and property free of debris. Please VOTE NO, NO on this development.
Now that Mills College is shutting down, it’s great that there is more development slated for this area, especially housing over small commercial. It will definitely enhance the walkability of the neighborhood, and perhaps provide services to residents in the area.
