Development permits have been filed for a three-unit residential development at 684 Fairmount Avenue in Grand Lake, Oakland. The project would replace a single-unit structure. Walnut Creek-based Campos Development is responsible for the project.

The 24-foot tall development will yield just over 5,000 square feet of built area on top of a 10,600 square foot parcel. Units A and B will both span 1,710 square feet, while unit C will contain 1,575 square feet. Each will offer three bedrooms with in-unit laundry and two and a half bathrooms. Parking for five cars will be included on-site.
